title: [Institutionalized treatment of agoraphobia with panic anxiety].
abstract: We describe an integrated behavioral-psychodynamic treatment programme for inpatients suffering from agoraphobia and panic anxiety. This programme emphasizes intensive drug-free exposure training followed by work with anxiety-laden dynamic conflicts. We present promising results of evaluation studies, and discuss the important role of cognitive reconstruction of anxiety and of passive and active avoidant attitudes in exposure training. Lastly, we make certain recommendations concerning the approach to anxiety problems in general practice.
