Scout Shamblen

Scout Shamblen is the owner of Everybody Belongs LLC Scout (they/them) is a queer, non-binary, and neurodivergent therapist, educator, and advocate with experience in human animal-environment interactions, transformative justice, group facilitation, trauma education, addiction, policy and advocacy, training, and research. I'm passionate about developing skills with individuals of varying social identities using intersectional, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, narrative, and strengths-based approaches, while harnessing the power of connection and interdependence through strong community building and resource mapping. I believe in celebrating the magic of the LGBTQIA+ community, the social model of disability, harm reduction, the human-animal bond, somatic healing, sex positivity, Health At Every Size, and collaborating with clients on finding creative ways to heal and express the stories that color their lives. Your experience occurs within our current geopolitical climate and is not separate from your individual and relational healing. I believe in the use of humor, collaborative creative expression, exploration of generational themes, and a connection to the natural world and its inhabitants, as important bolsters that fuel resilience in the face of ongoing genocides, exploitation, abuse, and violence towards those who have been forcefully marginalized. I aim to ensure that my practice is culturally responsive and done so with humility and relationship building as someone with privilege under white supremacy.
