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
Like many of you, I’ve experienced multiple losses since childhood. But in 2021, when my sister Priya died, my world shifted in ways I could never have imagined.
My grief felt disorienting, overwhelming, and achingly lonely.
I found myself searching for steady ground in the midst of deep love and profound loss.
How healing began
With time, patience, self-compassion, and support from others willing to listen and help me find my footing, the weight of grief gradually became more bearable.
What I’ve learned
Grief is a natural part of the human experience. We may never “get over” it, but we can learn how to integrate 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 others process their grief and create space for healing.
I’m honored to sit with you in the discomfort of your grief and help you figure out what comes next.
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.”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Not at all. Often, people approach me without clarity, only a sense that they’re struggling with a loss. 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 education and 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, while others return at different moments over time. I’m open to providing what feels supportive to you 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.
-
Support begins with a Connection Call, and ongoing sessions or short-term packages are available afterward.
Investment varies depending on the level of support, and I’m always happy to talk through options so we can find something that feels both supportive and manageable. -
