When grief turns your world upside down, you shouldn’t have to navigate it alone.
You deserve gentle, compassionate support that meets you exactly where you are.
If your heart is heavy with grief, please know:
You’re not broken - grief is love in motion
It’s OK to move at your own pace - no timelines, no pressure
There’s no “right way” to grieve - your experience is uniquely yours
“Your grief is an echo of the love that lives in you.”
My why
A note from Nicole, your grief ally.
What I know about grief
Grief changes everything – your routines, identity, relationships, even the way you breathe.
I know this not only through my grief support training, but because I’ve lived it.
My story
In 2021, when my sister Priya died, my world shifted in ways I could never have imagined. Grief was disorienting, overwhelming, and achingly lonely.
How healing began
With time, patience, self-compassion, and steady support, the weight of grief slowly became more bearable.
What I learned
Grief isn’t something we ever “get over” but we can learn how to live alongside it with tenderness, meaning, and continued connection to the ones we love.
Why I’m here
My sister’s death reshaped the way I listen, love, and show up for others. It’s the heartbeat behind My Grief Ally and the reason I became a certified grief coach. I provide tender support and practical tools to help you process your grief, honor your love, and find new purpose.
If you need a safe space, you’re welcome here, exactly as you are.
For the harder days, these gentle reminders are here for you.
“We don’t mend grief; we make space for it to breathe.”
Grief is heavy. You don’t have to carry it alone.
As your grief ally, I offer compassionate support:
Your emotions will be
fully acknowledged without judgment.
Validation
Connection
Through deep listening, we’ll create a
space of safety and trust.
Empowerment
You’ll learn to carry your grief with more steadiness, in ways that feel true to you.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. Many people come without clarity — only a sense that something feels heavy or unfinished. We can begin with a conversation and see what feels right, without committing to anything.
-
Grief takes many forms. This may include the loss of a loved one, a sibling, a parent, a friend, a beloved animal companion, or a loss that isn’t always recognized or named. If you’re wondering whether what you’re experiencing “counts,” you’re not alone — and you’re welcome here.
-
No. I offer grief support, not clinical therapy. My role is to walk alongside you as a listener and companion, creating space for reflection, remembrance, and care. If at any point therapeutic or clinical support would be helpful, I encourage and support outside referrals.
-
There is no set timeline. Some people reach out for a brief period; others return at different moments over time. We stay responsive to what feels supportive rather than following a preset structure.
-
Yes, occasionally. I facilitate small, intimate grief circles when the timing feels right. These are shared spaces focused on listening, connection, and honoring different experiences of loss. Availability is shared through conversation rather than promotion.
-
Absolutely. You don’t need to be ready or certain. Reaching out can simply be a way to feel less alone — even briefly.
