About Mary Beth Abella, MSW
I’m a seasoned trainer, consultant, and speaker with over 20 years of experience helping professionals strengthen their Motivational Interviewing (MI) skills. I believe the people I coach are doing extraordinary work that requires empathy, patience, and resilience—often with little recognition. My goal is to make that work easier and more rewarding by helping you build skills that reduce burnout and increase success with the people you serve.
