Yes! 🙌🏼

As a therapist, I often remind clients that growth can be quiet and steady. If you're showing up and noticing small shifts, therapy is working.

I'm honored to be part of the group at Fort Smith Therapy! 🌴 And the introduction here captures my heart and approach to therapy perfectly 🙏🏻🩵

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.

Read that again.

You’re probably not giving yourself enough credit.

Progress doesn’t always feel loud.
Sometimes it’s quiet.
Sometimes it’s just you, becoming the person you once wished you could be.

Drop a ❤️ if you needed this reminder today.

Yesssss...

Mistakes don’t have to define us, weigh us down, or keep us stuck in shame. With grace, they can become teachers—guiding us toward growth, compassion, and resilience.

Today, can you look at one of your past mistakes and ask: What did it teach me? Grace doesn’t erase mistakes—
it rewrites their meaning.

You don't have to have it all figured out!
