Avoidant Personality Disorder Treatment
Turning down a promotion because it means more meetings, or skipping a friend's party because you're sure you'll say the wrong thing, are the kinds of patterns we treat at the Hollick Institute. You get clinical care for avoidant personality disorder, including when it shows up alongside substance use.
Treating Avoidant Personality Disorder
Turning down an invitation because you already know how the conversation will go, replaying it afterward, and dreading the next one. That pattern is exhausting, and it is treatable. At Hollick Institute you work with licensed therapists who help you examine the fear of criticism and rejection that drives the avoidance, then build practical skills you can use in real interactions.
When symptoms warrant it, medication management is available and coordinated with your therapy. If drinking or drug use has become part of how you cope with anxiety around people, our integrated dual-diagnosis care treats both at once. You are met with respect, and you set the pace.
