About My Clients

Umu specializes in the treatment of anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, and bipolar disorder using a root-cause, whole-person model. Her care often includes lifestyle and neuroimmune assessments, nutritional psychiatry, and psychoeducation to support long-term balance—not just symptom relief.

My Background and Approach

Umu Coomber is a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 21 years of clinical experience and over 6 years of prescribing experience. She provides trauma-informed psychiatric care to children, adolescents, and adults, blending traditional psychiatry with integrative, functional, and nutritional approaches.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Having personally navigated trauma, Umu brings a depth of empathy and lived understanding to her practice. Clients often describe her as calm, wise, and grounding—a provider who doesn’t just treat symptoms, but sees and supports the whole human being.
