Journey of Martin Scott
Martin was born in Attawapiskat and grew up on the reservation. As a first language speaker of Cree, Martin did not speak a word of english until 20 years of age. Having an instructor with unbounded patience while he learned to communicate through english speaking methods, was an amazing blessing to Martin. Every step of the way Martin’s instructor assisted him along his education journey. Today, Martin is a certified as an Indigenous-Focused Trauma Therapist.
“I’ve learned from many teachers during my lifetime. I learn from elders, teachers, life experience, and Gitchi-Manitou — The Great Spirit”.
— Martin Sott
Helping Others is powerful
Martin Scott's primary focus is guiding Indigenous people on a journey to free themselves from the burden of trauma by embracing the strength of our cultural teachings and ceremonies.
The path to wellness is holistic, centering on the restoration of balance between the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of a person. A key part of this healing involves the use of traditional, natural medicines to help cleanse and detoxify the body, offering a culturally-grounded path away from addictions to drugs and alcohol.
Guided by the understanding that we have been appointed as stewards of the land by the Creator, Gitchi-Manitou, Martin emphasizes a profound responsibility: we must first nurture our own mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health. It is by healing ourselves that we become strong enough to contribute to the healing of our families, our communities, and our Nations.
