Motivational Interviewing for Reproductive Health Providers - Asynchronous

Using the principles of Motivational Interviewing and ViiV Healthcare's Risk to Reasons framework, this content is designed to guide providers in implementing patient-centered HIV prevention and care, such as PrEP, by focusing on what motivates and empowers cisgender women to take charge of their sexual health. Rather than focusing solely on risk, the approach helps providers reframe the conversation around each patient’s personal values, goals, and reasons, supporting informed and confident decision-making.
