Midweek Reminder: Healing isn’t about getting it perfect — it’s about showing up for yourself, one small step at a time.

Some days you’ll move forward. Some days you’ll simply rest. Both count.

At Fort Smith Therapy, we believe every small act of self-care and self-awareness is progress worth celebrating.

Meet Dawn Ellis, LPC

“Shame is never a motivator.”

Dawn’s journey is one of redemption and resilience. After walking through her own seasons of heartache and growth, she found healing through grace and the support of others — and now, she helps clients find that same freedom.

Dawn believes transformation happens when we’re met with compassion, not criticism. She provides a safe space for clients to rediscover their strength, process pain, and build a life rooted in acceptance and authenticity.

At Fort Smith Therapy, Dawn reminds us that healing is possible — and you don’t have to walk the path alone.

Welcome

In counseling, we believe a person should feel safe and respected. I have a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Community Counseling. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Registered Play Therapist and a Certified Child and Adolescent Trauma Professional. Play is a way for the family to connect even when a connection with their child (biological, foster or adoptive) can seem impossible. I am passionate about helping others find their inner peace. I decided to open Fort Smith Therapy because I wanted a clinic that specialized in treating the whole person and their family, not just the symptoms. The therapist that work at Fort Smith Therapy are hand picked because of their passion and ability to help people work through their hardest pain and memories.

At Fort Smith Therapy, we want you to be the best you ever. We do not want you to be stuck in counseling for years with no resolutions. The therapists at Fort Smith Therapy have went above and beyond to attend the best trainings for therapists. They are trained in Emotion Focused Therapy, Brain Spotting, EMDR, Art Therapy and Play Therapy.

If you are having issues with trauma, depression, anxiety, or even issues in your relationships, Fort Smith Therapy is your one stop shop. The therapist all have their own specialities. Fort Smith Therapy have therapists for children, adolescents, adults and couples. At Fort Smith Therapy you will find solutions to all your relationship issues, even your relationship with yourself.
