A little about me...

Welcome!

My name is Dawn Ermert, and I am committed to guiding you on your healing journey with compassion, expertise, and a holistic approach. As a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), Reiki Master Teacher (RMT), Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), and Certified Spiritual Life Coach, I bring together a diverse range of modalities to help you experience profound transformation and achieve harmony in your mind, body, and spirit.

My passion for healing was born from my own experiences. Living with Complex PTSD has given me a deep, personal understanding of the challenges that arise from trauma. This path led me to pursue advanced training and gain invaluable wisdom from working closely with shamans, spiritual healers, and expert instructors. These experiences have shaped my unique approach, which focuses on restoring the mind-body connection and accessing the body’s innate ability to heal.

As one of the only certified somatic practitioners in Arkansas, I specialize in helping clients release stored tension, trauma, and energetic blockages through somatic therapy. This powerful practice works with the body’s natural rhythms, supporting its ability to heal, regulate, and restore a sense of calm and wholeness from within.

As a Licensed Massage Therapist, I take a trauma-informed approach to bodywork, focusing on the connection between the nervous system and physical tension. I help clients regulate their nervous systems, release stored stress, and promote deep relaxation. My work goes beyond traditional massage by addressing how the body holds onto trauma and tension, creating a safe space for the body to unwind and reset naturally.

In addition to bodywork, I offer trauma-focused life coaching with an emphasis on inner child healing and sexual trauma recovery. By combining Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, grounding techniques, and energy work, I help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that need love and attention. Together, we will work to heal old emotional wounds, release limiting patterns, and guide you toward greater self-compassion, clarity, and empowerment.

Whether you are seeking relief from physical pain, emotional release, or a deeper connection to yourself, I am here to hold space for you with care and understanding. Together, we will address your unique needs, empowering you to reconnect with your true self and embrace a life of balance, peace, and vitality.

It is an honor to walk alongside you on this path of healing and personal growth. Your journey matters, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
