Bekah Coursey, LCSW. Specializing in loss, life changes, and finding hope again. Located at Olive Branch Counseling in Van Buren, AR.

In person and telehealth sessions available. Hi, I'm Bekah Coursey, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe grief is the one experience that connects us all. Whether it's the death of a loved one, the pain of unmet expectations, a health diagnosis, or the quiet loss of identity, grief touches every part of who we are. Grief isn't linear, and healing doesn't come with a checklist. There's no "

right way" to mourn. My desire is to hold space where love and loss can co-exist - where your pain is honored, your experiences are validated and your story is safe. As a Certified Thanatologist, I specialize in helping individuals navigate death, dying, and the many forms of grief that can surface throughout life. Whether you're grieving a death, struggling with a major life transition, or holding on to pain from long ago, you're not alone. Together we can explore what healing looks like for you.

Valentine’s Day can be complicated.
For some, it’s hearts and flowers.
For others, it’s a quiet ache.

If you’re grieving a partner, a child, a parent, a friend, a dream, or a version of life you thought you’d have—today may feel heavy. And that’s okay. Love doesn’t disappear when someone is gone; it changes shape. Grief is love with nowhere to land.

Sending extra compassion to those missing someone today. You are not forgotten. Your love still matters. ❤️

For many people, rest isn’t soothing—it’s uncomfortable.
When things finally get quiet, thoughts get louder.
Guilt shows up.
Fear creeps in.

So your body stays busy.
Alert.
Moving.
Not because you’re avoiding rest, but because slowing down can feel unsafe.

🤎And there is hope.
With support you can learn how to feel safe in stillness again, one small moment at a time.

It’s important to acknowledge that gratitude and grief often coexist. For many, the holiday season brings joy and connection—while also highlighting loss, change, or the absence of someone we deeply miss.

Grief does not mean we are ungrateful, and gratitude does not mean our pain has disappeared. Both experiences can be true at the same time.

If this Thanksgiving feels different for you, I hope you give yourself permission to feel it all. To honor what hurts. To cherish what remains. To welcome joy when it comes, even if it’s quiet and unexpected.

Wishing you a gentle and meaningful Thanksgiving. 🧡

🧡 November is Children’s Grief Awareness Month 🧡
Today is National Children's Grief Awareness Day. Supporting kids and teens who are grieving can be hard, even for well-meaning adults.

Grief in childhood looks different for every young person. It can show up in waves, in questions, in quiet moments, or in big emotions that feel hard to name. What children need most isn’t a “fix,” but a safe place to express what they’re carrying.

As you look through the images included in this post, I hope they serve as a reminder of the power of choosing supportive, thoughtful language when talking with grieving kids. A simple shift in the way we show up can make a world of difference.

Children deserve:
💛 Space to share their feelings
💛 Adults who listen more than they speak
💛 Reassurance that grief has no timeline
💛 Permission to grieve in their own way

Let’s use this month to raise awareness, open conversations, and honor the young people who are learning to navigate life after loss.
Together, we can help create a world where grieving children feel seen, heard, and supported. 🧡

So often, when anger shows up, it’s not just rage or frustration—it’s protection.
Anger steps in to shield the deeper hurt beneath it: the grief, the fear, the disappointment, the sadness.

Instead of judging your anger, try to get curious about it.
Ask yourself: What is this anger protecting? What pain might be underneath?

When we approach anger with compassion instead of shame, we often find the real wound that needs care.

🌍💚 World Mental Health Day 💚🌍

Today is a reminder that grief is a mental health experience too.

Loss doesn’t just live in the heart—it affects our minds, our bodies, our energy, and how we see the world. Yet so often, grief is overlooked in conversations about mental health.

If you’re grieving right now, please know this:
💛 You’re not broken. You’re human.
💛 Grief takes time—and it’s okay if healing doesn’t look linear.
💛 Reaching out for help isn’t weakness; it’s an act of care for yourself.

This World Mental Health Day, let’s make space for grief in the mental health conversation.
Because healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means learning to carry love and loss together. 🌿

Did you know...
Not all grief is openly acknowledged. Disenfranchised grief happens when a loss isn’t socially recognized—like a job loss, the end of a friendship, the loss of a pet, or a breakup.

Even if others don’t see it, your grief is real. It can still affect your mind, body, and emotions—and deserves care, attention, and compassion.

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.

Grief comes in seasons.

These seasons don’t arrive in order.
They don’t last for a set amount of time.
They loop. They repeat. Sometimes they collide.

One day you might feel okay. The next day, you may not. That’s not failure—that’s grief.

Grief doesn’t follow the rules. But it does follow love.

If you’re in a hard season right now, hold on. Another one will come. Not necessarily easier… just different.

And with time, you’ll learn to live within the rhythm of them all.

Did you know...
Anxiety and grief often show up together. When we experience loss, the brain’s stress response can trigger heightened worry, racing thoughts, or even panic.

It’s not a sign of weakness—it’s your mind and body reacting to overwhelm. With support and care, both grief and anxiety can soften over time.

09/01/2025

Sometimes our minds work overtime, trying to force logic onto situations that simply don’t make sense. And that’s exhausting.

It’s okay to pause and remind yourself: not everything can be explained or fixed with reasoning.

Instead, focus on what you can control—your breath, your self-care, the support you allow in, and the kindness you show yourself.

Keep going, step by step. You don’t need to have all the answers to move forward.

Grief doesn’t go away. It evolves.

Grief changes with us over time.
At first, it can feel overwhelming—loud, heavy, and constant.
Later, it may soften, shifting into memories, quiet reminders, or a bittersweet ache.

It never fully leaves, but it does transform.
And in that evolution, we often discover strength, compassion, and deeper connection to what we’ve lost.
