Brain Fog Recovery Program

Metabolic psychiatry education and support for your recovery

I’m Nicole Laurent, MA, LMHC. I provide structured education and ongoing support to help you learn how to use ketogenic metabolic therapy.

If you are living with recurrent or chronic mood and cognitive symptoms, you may already know how much they can interfere with daily life. Feeling confused, forgetful, fatigued, or disconnected can make it difficult to know where to begin.

In the Brain Fog Recovery Program, I bring together online lessons, live Q&A sessions, and a private community to help you learn and implement ketogenic metabolic therapy and related nutrition and lifestyle strategies. You have somewhere to bring your questions as you put what you learn into practice.

What I bring to your recovery

There isn’t a name for everything I bring to this work, and I refuse to squeeze it into one that leaves most of it out.

I’m not a dietitian. And calling me a metabolic health coach doesn’t begin to describe the experience I bring to your recovery.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor with nearly 20 years of behavioral health experience, additional training in nutrition and integrative health, functional blood chemistry analysis, and specialized training in ketogenic metabolic therapy for psychiatric and neurological concerns.

I work at the edge of the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry with a focus dedicated to putting psychiatric ketogenic therapy into practice. I publish in metabolic psychiatry, train other mental health professionals, and help clinicians and research teams think through implementation.

I contributed to the expert consensus on ketogenic therapy for serious mental illness.

I serve in advisory roles with Metabolic Mind, Metabolic Collective, and Accord.

What you will learn and how you will be supported

Metabolic psychiatry explores the relationship between metabolism and mental health. This program focuses on the practical work of learning and implementing ketogenic metabolic therapy, drawing on my experience as a behavioral health provider.

• Structured online learning. Work through 12 course modules at your own pace, with educational handouts and resources to return to.
• Nutrition and metabolic education. Learn about ketogenic metabolic therapy, nutrition, and lifestyle changes relevant to mood and cognitive symptoms.
• Nutrigenomics lessons. Learn how genetic information can inform discussions about personalized nutrition and supplementation.
• Live group Q&A. Bring questions to weekly sessions as you work through the lessons and apply them.
• Individualized dietary guidance and a private community. Get help with implementation and connect with others doing this work.

Help when recovery gets complicated

Why does that matter to you?

Because knowing what to eat is only one part of doing this work.

You may be trying to make changes while dealing with brain fog, low energy, anxiety, depression, or habits that have been in place for years. And as you begin to feel better, you may need help figuring out what to do with the capacity you’re regaining.

Almost 20 years of behavioral health experience changes how I think about those challenges. I understand how difficult it can be to make and sustain changes when your brain isn’t working the way you want it to. I also know that recovery involves more than a list of foods or a set of macros.

I bring my behavioral health training to the process of identifying what makes change difficult and building the skills to move forward. You continue working with your own healthcare providers for medical oversight and medication decisions.

If you’re comparing my program with working with a dietitian or a metabolic health coach, I want you to understand what you’re actually comparing. My program was built from a combination of clinical experience, nutrition training, and years spent working on how ketogenic metabolic therapy is implemented for mental health.

I built it to support the practical work of pursuing recovery as you learn, implement, ask questions, and get help along the way.

You have the right to know all the ways you can feel better.

Is this the right kind of support for you?

This program offers the education and support you need to pursue your recovery. You will learn how to implement nutrition and lifestyle changes, with opportunities to ask questions and get help along the way. You continue working with your own healthcare providers for medical oversight and medication decisions.

A participant’s experience

The following is one participant’s account of her experience. Individual results vary.

Dear Nicole,

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your Brain Fog Recovery Program and your dedication to sharing your extensive knowledge and expertise in utilizing powerful nutritional and metabolic brain therapies to help individuals overcome recurrent or chronic brain fog. As someone who was experiencing a decline in cognitive function, despite not having significant mental health or medical issues, I found your program to be a transformative solution.

Prior to joining your program, I noticed that my brain was not processing information as quickly as it once did, and I struggled to access cognitive information efficiently. This was particularly evident during high-stress tasks, such as presentations, and even in professional conversations, leading to a significant loss of confidence and a reluctance to engage and take risks in my career.

Through your personalized macros appointments, the supportive Facebook group, and the informative weekly Zoom meetings, I acquired the tools and knowledge necessary to adopt and maintain this life-changing lifestyle. With your guidance and the program’s evidence-based approach, I have experienced a remarkable improvement in my cognitive function. My brain is now firing on all cylinders, and I have regained the confidence to share and present information effectively, which is essential to my profession.

Beyond the cognitive benefits, I feel vibrant and energized overall. I had no idea how much my body would thrive running on ketones until I experienced it firsthand. While my pickleball opponents may not appreciate my enhanced strategic thinking on the court, I am relishing the positive effects in all aspects of my life.

I recognize that being a trailblazer in this field must come with its challenges and pushback from those who may not understand or embrace this approach. However, those of us who have reaped the benefits of your Brain Fog Recovery Program are immensely grateful for your unwavering commitment. Your program has empowered me to break through the haze of cognitive symptoms and become fully present in my life, allowing me to thrive both personally and professionally.

Thank you for showing me the path to a fully functioning brain and supporting me on this transformative journey.

Sincerely, Kim W.

Why aren’t there more testimonials?
You’ll see a few testimonials here, but not a giant wall of them. That’s intentional. A large portion of participants receive access through my nonprofit. We keep a strict boundary: nonprofit-supported access does not get used to generate marketing for the for-profit program. And because nonprofit participants have the same access as paying participants, we keep one standard across the whole community. We do not run testimonial campaigns or ask participants for quotes.

It keeps the program experience cleaner, and it protects the people in it.

• No pressure, no awkwardness. Participants are not asked to “give back” with testimonials or feel any obligation.
• Clean nonprofit and for profit separation. Nonprofit-supported access stays mission-aligned and never becomes marketing for the for profit branch.
• Privacy respected by default. People can participate fully without sharing personal details publicly.
• Less noise, more delivery. Many participants see this as a program benefit because they are here to learn and implement, not to be asked for promotional content.
