About Sovichan
Dr. Sovichan Scaria is a licensed professional counselor and licensed marriage and family therapist based in Louisiana. He brings a calm, respectful presence to sessions and focuses on clients' strengths and resilience.
He speaks English and Malayalam and has five years of experience as an LPC and LMFT. Dr. Scaria meets people where they are and begins by listening to what feels most urgent.
He aims to create a space where clients can speak honestly and sort through difficult feelings like anger, grief, or anxiety.
Background and approach
He uses plain language so people understand what to expect from sessions. His work draws on therapies that help people clarify values, notice unhelpful thinking, and improve emotional connection. Sessions often focus on small, practical steps clients can try between meetings.
He pays attention to strengths and exceptions when problems ease up. Before licensure he spent many years as a pastoral counselor and completed a doctorate in marriage and family therapy in 2019. He began practicing as a licensed marriage and family therapist in 2020 and also holds a licensed professional counselor credential.
When practical goals are helpful, he uses solution-focused techniques and teams up with clients to set achievable steps. He also draws on mindfulness and existential ideas to help people make meaning during life changes. International clients may be seen and sessions are offered in multiple formats.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their values and take small actions that match them even when emotions are strong. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce distress and improve sleep, mood, or daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the center of the process, with the therapist listening closely and offering empathy to help clients find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring to sessions. That could mean combining ACT, CBT, and client-centered listening so therapy feels practical and personal.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and continue support across distances.
