I work for the State Child Rights Protection and Adoption Service under the Ministry of Social Security and Labor, on a mobile team. We provide assistance to families whose children are at risk of parental misconduct, violence or neglect. In our team, we use MI to work with adults and their families, helping people work towards change in addressing domestic violence, substance use, and changes to allow their children to live a completely better life.
Also I work as psychologist directly with a variety of clients, including families, victims of domestic violence, people addicted to alcohol or drugs ant their family members. I teach parenting skills training and conduct Mindfullness based training.
Together with the Lithuanian MI coaching team, we will work to implement MI in areas such as health care, social, crime prevention, addiction treatment.
