• Identify thought patterns and triggers fueling your anxiety

Types of Anxiety Therapy Offered by Dr. Lynn Winsten in Berkeley

Anxiety affects people in different ways — and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. As an experienced psychologist for anxiety in Berkeley, Dr. Lynn Winsten offers several evidence-based therapy approaches tailored to your specific needs:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is one of the most effective treatments for anxiety. It focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns that drive anxious behavior. Learn more about CBT for anxiety in Berkeley and how it can help reframe your daily reactions.

Exposure Therapy

Ideal for phobias or trauma-related anxiety, this method gently helps you face triggers in a safe, supportive environment. Over time, your reactions become less intense and more manageable.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT combines acceptance and change strategies. It teaches emotional regulation, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness — especially helpful for those with high emotional sensitivity.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT helps you clarify what really matters to you in life and encourages action based on your values, rather than avoidance driven by fear.

Each treatment plan is customized to help you manage your anxiety effectively and build long-term emotional resilience. For a deeper overview of services, explore Berkeley therapy for mental health.
