Renewed Hope, LLC 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.

Graduation season can bring more than pride, it can bring grief too.

Whether it’s your first child leaving home or your youngest graduating and the house growing quieter, these transitions can stir up a lot of emotions.

You can feel joy for everything they’ve accomplished while also grieving the end of a chapter.
The bedtime routines.
The busy schedules.
The version of life you’ve known for so long.

And that doesn’t make you ungrateful.
It makes you human.

Grief isn’t always about death or loss in the traditional sense. Sometimes it’s about change. About realizing time moved faster than you expected. About learning to let go while still holding love close.

So if your heart feels both full and heavy this graduation season - you’re not alone. And if you’re struggling to navigate the emotions that come with these changes, I’d love to walk with you through it. 🤍

For anyone hurting this Mother’s Day....

If today feels heavy, be gentle with yourself.
Rest. Step away. Do what you need to get through.

Sometimes, healing looks like learning to care for yourself
in the ways you always needed.

You deserve that kind of love too.

Mother’s Day without your mom....

Mother’s Day can feel especially heavy when your mom is no longer here.
The memories, the traditions, the absence - it all shows up at once.

Grief may look like tears, silence, or even numbness today.
However it shows up, it’s okay.

Love doesn’t end. And neither does the bond you carry.

For the mothers grieving their child.....

There are no words big enough for this kind of loss.
Mother’s Day may feel like a reminder of what should be, but isn’t.

You are still a mother.
Your love still exists.
And your child is still part of your story.

For the mothers whose babies were never held...

Grief doesn’t require time or memories to be real.
Love begins long before a child is born.

Today, we honor the babies who were deeply loved—
and the mothers who carry them in their hearts.

For those longing to be mothers...

Mother’s Day can highlight the quiet grief of what hasn’t happened.
The waiting. The hoping. The “what ifs.”

Your pain is real.
Your longing matters.
You are not alone in this. 🌿

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.
