Getting to know Abou Kamara
I am an independently licensed individual and family therapist for the states of Massachusetts and Delaware. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Simmons University. For over 6 years, I have had the honor of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds on issues impacting their lives. I approach treatment through a collaborative framework, recognizing that you are the expert of your life experience, and that my role is to accompany you through insightful exploration to help increase self-awareness, reach your goals, and bring about lasting change. I provide an empathetic, calm, and nurturing environment where you will feel heard and, most importantly, understood. Together, we will work on ways to help you understand your feelings and compulsions.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Abou has been phenomenal. He is very friendly and personable, not afraid to share things about himself to help make a point or create a bond. He is equally as empowering as he is challenging - he wants to encourage you through positivity and promoting self belief while appreciating how powerful facing and overcoming challenges can be for building confidence and resilience.
