Welcome to Bubblegum & Duct Tape Wellness, where healing doesn’t have to feel heavy.
We’re a quirky, kind-hearted psychiatry practice that believes mental wellness should be pressure-free, deeply personal, and—dare we say—a little fun. Our name says it all: whether you're feeling like you're held together with bubblegum, duct tape, or both, you're absolutely in the right place.
Our tagline says it best: We mend minds — one tear, one patch, one step at a time.
Meet Dishina
Founder, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), and gentle disruptor of the “clinical” norm. Dishina didn’t set out to build a typical psychiatric practice—because she’s never been a typical provider.
With a rich background in both nursing and psychiatry, Dishina blends clinical expertise with a deep belief in compassion, authenticity, and a touch of creative chaos.
After years of working in traditional healthcare settings, she realized something was missing: humanity. That raw, real, "you can exhale now" kind of care.
So she built Bubblegum & Duct Tape Wellness to be just that—a place where people can feel safe, supported, and unfiltered. Her mission? To give you the kind of care that feels less like an appointment and more like a conversation with someone who truly gets it.
Dishina is especially passionate about destigmatizing mental health, expanding access to innovative treatments like ketamine therapy, and helping clients rewrite their stories on their own terms. She works side-by-side with a handpicked team of PMHNPs who share her belief that healing is never one-size-fits-all.
Off the clock, you can find her sipping strong coffee, journaling in technicolor pens, or losing herself in a good playlist. She’s equal parts science and soul—and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
Why Bubblegum & Duct Tape?
Because life gets messy. And sometimes, all you’ve got is a little bubblegum and duct tape holding you together. We get it—and we’re here to help you heal, one tear, one patch, one step at a time. Come as you are. We’ll be right here.
