Katlyn Lamont, DBT therapist in Niagara offering therapy for emotional regulation and BPD

Meet Katlyn

Katlyn Lamont is a compassionate and skilled therapist at Laura Bruno Psychotherapy who supports individuals navigating intense emotions, relationship challenges, and patterns that feel hard to break.

With a warm, non-judgmental approach, Katlyn helps clients feel understood while building practical tools that create real change — not just insight, but skills that can be used in everyday life.

Katlyn’s Approach to Therapy

Katlyn’s work is grounded in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), an evidence-based approach designed to support individuals who experience emotional intensity, impulsivity, and relationship distress.

DBT focuses on helping clients:

Regulate overwhelming emotions
Build distress tolerance skills
Improve communication and relationships
Reduce impulsive or self-sabotaging behaviors

Katlyn integrates DBT with a trauma-aware lens, creating a supportive space where clients can learn skills while feeling safe, respected, and validated.

Who Katlyn Works With

Katlyn supports individuals who may be struggling with:

Intense emotions and mood swings
Relationship patterns that feel painful or chaotic
Addiction, impulsivity, or self-sabotage
Feeling “too much” or misunderstood
Experiences commonly associated with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

Her approach is collaborative and compassionate, helping clients move toward greater emotional stability and healthier relationships.

DBT Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder

DBT is one of the most effective therapeutic approaches for individuals living with Borderline Personality Disorder. Katlyn has experience working with clients who meet criteria for BPD, as well as those who resonate with its traits, such as emotional sensitivity, fear of abandonment, and difficulty managing intense feelings.

Katlyn’s goal is not to “fix” clients, but to empower them with skills that help them feel more grounded, capable, and in control of their lives.
