Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Talk Therapy! CBT: Somewhat structured talk therapy is the most likely treatment. If there are concomitant mental disorders for which medications are recommended, they might be prescribed - but they would be for the other condition. Good luck.

See website: Any discussion of psychotherapy is naturally beyond the scope of 400 letters. I am referring you to a website that i found that gives a very good and balanced discussion of the various psychotherapies for avoidant personality disorder. I think you would find it quite helpful.Avoidant personality disorder treatment recommendations ... www.health.am/psy/more/apd_treatment_recommendations.
