Agoraphobia: Going a little further outside each day, enjoying the outdoors (even the yard) while actively thinking that all will be ok, and seeing a therapist will all help.

SSRI: In additional to what's been posted and cognitive behavioral therapy, medications like fluoxetine (prozac) and citalopram (celexa) have been shown to be quite effective.
