Lyme Brain: Understanding Cognitive & Emotional Challenges and How to Heal


Listen Later

Learn from Dr. Nicola Ducharme how to understand and heal Lyme Brain. Explore cognitive and emotional symptoms, co-infections, detox strategies, and the power of neuroplasticity and mindset in recovery.


In this essential episode of LymeBytes!, Dr. Myriah welcomes Dr. Nicola Ducharme, a Lyme-literate naturopathic physician, author, and educator, to explore Lyme Brain—the cognitive, mental, and psycho-emotional challenges often experienced by Lyme and co-infection patients.

Dr. Ducharme explains the multifaceted nature of Lyme Brain, including brain fog, memory issues, anxiety, depression, and OCD-like behaviors, as well as secondary effects from long-term undiagnosed illness. She breaks down the roles of Borrelia, Babesia, and Bartonella, along with inflammation, toxicity, neurotransmitter imbalances, and hormonal issues in driving cognitive symptoms.

Listeners will learn evidence-based strategies for recovery, including targeted infection treatment, detox, antioxidants, lifestyle interventions, amino acid therapy, and low-dose naltrexone. Dr. Ducharme emphasizes the power of neuroplasticity and mindset work—practices like gratitude journaling, EFT, meditation, and letting go of the “victim” identity—to rewire the brain for lasting healing.


Dr. Nicola Ducharme, ND, is a Lyme-literate naturopathic physician, author, and educator specializing in complex chronic illness, including Lyme disease and co-infections. She teaches integrative strategies for cognitive, emotional, and physical healing and runs the Transformational Healing Academy, helping patients rewire their brains and regain function.
