About me

Greetings! My name is Sovichan E Scaria. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist from Louisiana. As you get a chance you can see my profile to learn a little bit more about my background and approach. Please also feel free to ask questions. My therapy style is based on respect, understanding , caring and empathy. I meet people where they are and acknowledge their pain and go from there . I like to focus on the strengths, resilience and possibilities of the clients to overcome their obstacles. I will be a conduit for the clients to sort through the things that are difficult right now, and offer them a safe place to be open and honest with unconditional positive regard. I have been meeting clients of all ages and backgrounds for the past 30 years as a pastoral counsellor. From 2012 onwards, I have been meeting clients as an intern of the marriage and family therapy with my supervisors at the University of Louisiana, Monroe. I have received my Doctorate in Marriage and family Therapy in 2019 and I began to practice as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in 2020. My approach is solution-focused brief therapy where I work with the client as a team and focus on the resources and exceptions to the clients problems.

Being a Christian, my greatest joy will be helping people based on their faith journey. I have lots of experience in walking with believes in their challenges of life.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Sovichan Scaria. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Faithful Counseling might be different.

Dr. Scaria has been instrumental in helping me navigate some major life changes including the loss of my mother and a crisis of faith. I highly recommend him!

We think Dr. Scaria, suits us very well because of his religious background, as we are strong followers of Christ. It is our first session with him and we already feel comfortable that he will help with our problems. We find that he is very patient as well. We are happy with our decision to choose him.

I am very grateful to have been paired with Dr. Scaria during this season of transformation in Christ Jesus. Dr. Scaria organically understands the vision of my faith walk with the Lord. I am ready to take the steps I need to walk alongside Jesus.

Dr Scaria is kind, patient, knowledgeable and understanding. I had an excellent experience speaking with him. He prayed for me beautifully and helped me greatly. As a woman I have specific things that I feel need to share with another woman which is the only reason why I will look for a woman to speak with next time.
I highly recommend Dr Scaria in every aspect as a therapist. He is an exceptional human and very professional, wise and kind Doctor.
