Motivational Interviewing with BAC O'Connor, May 2025. “Fabulous! Steven is an amazing and engaging trainer, knowledgeable and entertaining."

Now, that was a glorious day!  Thank you to the BAC O’Connor for inviting me along to deliver my Motivational Interviewing course.  A beautiful group of learners, some of whom have contacted me since to say how they have already altered their practice – for the better.  And that’s a bloomin’ wonderful thing to read. 

“I feel more confident already. Very worthwhile training and informative.”

Followed by:

“What an absolutely amazing person! I felt very confident and comfortable with Steven! I

have learnt a lot 😊 Thank you Steve!”

The course was created bespoke for the learners at the BAC and it was a wonderful surprise to bump into a blast from the past while I was there, the one and only Jimmy.  I met Jimmy back in 2016 and made a film about his life and his (then) current situation.  To see the 2025 version of Jimmy compared to the 2016 version of Jimmy was something to behold. Living the life he was always supposed to lead. He looked twenty years YOUNGER.  A testament to the support he has received.  Onward, ever onward eh James!
