Arthur Scudari, LPC

Arthur Scudari is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 18 years of counseling experience. He focuses on common life stresses including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy and parenting. Arthur also lists blended family issues among his areas of focus. He offers services in English and accepts international clients.

Arthur writes plainly and keeps sessions direct. He listens without interruption and uses a client-centered stance. He also draws from breathing and meditation practices to introduce mindfulness skills during work together. Sessions aim to give space to speak about difficult or private topics that friends or family may not be able to handle.

In practice he uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to look at patterns of thought and behavior. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used when relationship feelings need clearer attention. Motivational Interviewing helps when people are weighing changes or struggling to move forward.

Arthur describes a hands-on approach that includes teaching simple breathing and grounding exercises in session. He prioritizes practical steps a person can try between meetings and checks how those steps are going. This is a straightforward way to address stress, anger, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

People who are managing complicated household dynamics - for example new partners, step roles, or co-parenting tensions - may find his focus on communication and attachment issues relevant. He encourages clients to pick a first session and see how the approach feels in practice.
