Episode notes

Nicole Laurent, MA, LMHC, is a licensed mental health counselor, nonprofit founder of Brain Fog Recovery Source, and clinical innovator in metabolic psychiatry. Nicole specializes in the targeted use of ketogenic metabolic therapy (KMT) to achieve remission in psychiatric disorders traditionally labeled treatment resistant. Through her clinical practice, peer reviewed articles, educational blog, continuing education programs for psychotherapy professionals, and nonprofit initiatives, Nicole challenges conventional psychiatric paradigms and increases access to evidence based ketogenic interventions for low income and government disabled populations globally. She reframes how mental health clinicians conceptualize and implement treatments, moving the field toward genuine remission and improved patient outcomes.
