Scott Bryant, Licensed Professional Counselor, US

As a military kid, Scott grew up calling a lot of different places home. He lived all over, experienced different communities and cultures, and learned early how to adapt, connect with people, and find common ground. Fortunately for us, somewhere along the way he found Poteau—and decided to plant some roots.

Scott is a man of Faith, Family, and…well, we needed another F. Fishing? Football? Farming? Fudge? We’ll get back to you on that one. What we do know is that his faith and family are central to who he is, and that same sense of commitment, compassion, and groundedness carries into his work with others.

Having spent much of his early life on the move, Scott brings a unique appreciation for the importance of belonging, connection, and having a place that feels like home. He has an easygoing, genuine approach that helps people feel comfortable being themselves.

After a childhood spent living all over, Scott chose southeastern Oklahoma as the place to stay. We’re awfully glad he did—and we’re especially glad he chose to make Poteau home and MPA part of his community.

As for that third F? Faith, family, and Fortitude has a nice ring to it. But we’re keeping fudge in contention.
