Tough Talk Trainer (beta)

A web-based Motivational Interviewing rehearsal room: Practice the conversation, not the slide deck: improvise with an AI client, get coaching when you freeze, then unpack what happened with structure so the next run feels sharper. For anyone who already cares about MI and wants repetition without the moral weight of “training” on someone’s real life.

Educational tool · includes informed consent flow in the shipping product · not a substitute for clinical supervision where required.

Why we are excited to ship it

Feedback with receipts Transcripts, metrics on core MI moves, and narrative analysis grounded in a values-based MI framework—not generic praise.

Designed for learners who finished “the course” This is the gym after graduation: strengthen skills when the slides are long gone.
