Meet Jake

I’m Jake, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), and I’m here to walk with you through the beautiful, complicated, sometimes messy journey of mental health.

At Bubblegum and Duct Tape Wellness, we believe healing doesn’t have to be perfect. Sometimes it’s about holding things together with what you’ve got — a bit of bubblegum hope, a strip of duct tape resilience, and someone who truly gets it.

Whether it’s through thoughtful medication management, ongoing therapeutic support, or simply being heard without judgment, I’m here to help you patch things up — one honest conversation, one step, one tear-and-repair at a time.

Let's Talk About What You're Feeling

Living with bipolar disorder can feel like riding a rollercoaster blindfolded — thrilling one moment, terrifying the next. The highs may fill you with ideas, energy, and a sense of invincibility... but often, they come with racing thoughts and emotional overload. The lows, on the other hand, can feel like sinking into quicksand — heavy, dark, and isolating.

You’re not broken. You’re not alone. You just need the right kind of support — the kind that sticks with you through it all.

Anxiety can sneak in like a fog, clouding every thought, every decision. It’s that knot in your stomach, the racing heart, the worry that won’t quit — even when everything “should” be fine.

Here, we see that anxiety not as weakness, but as a signal that your nervous system is asking for care, not criticism.

Depression can feel like living in grayscale while the rest of the world is in color. It drains your energy, dulls your joy, and makes even the simplest things — like getting out of bed — feel monumental.

We get it. And we’re here to help you find your way back to the light, at your pace, in your way.
