Dr. Nicole Kumi is the CEO and founder of The Whole Mom, a maternal wellness organization specializing in perinatal transitional coaching, assisting mothers with preparing their mental health as they transition into motherhood. 

In 2018 Nicole found herself on the other side of the behavioral healthcare system, needing services after being diagnosed with Postpartum Depression.  It was during this time that she realized how little discussion there was around perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and the challenges in finding the right type of services for what she was experiencing. 

Once she was able to improve her mental and emotional health, she felt called to action on behalf of mothers everywhere who were staying silent out of fear or a lack of information.  Nicole wrote about her experience publishing her first book, Postpartum My Language. 

My True Account of the 4th Trimester, in 2019 to bring awareness to the isolation, silence, and crisis affecting mothers all over the country, and has since created courses for new mothers and their partners to increase awareness, reduce stigma and limit the impact PMAD’s has on their experience with motherhood.  

Education/Certifications
Ph.D. in Advanced Studies in Human Behaviors from Capella University in 2018
PMH-C from Postpartum Support International in 2023.
Nicole is a on the Board of Postpartum Support International’s MD Chapter
