Despite the prevalence of Avoidant Personality Disorder, there are few therapists who specialize in treating it and few therapy groups composed mainly or only of its sufferers. Most experts incorrectly lump AvPD with social phobia, creating diagnostic confusion and leading to inadequate and often misguided therapy.
Martin Kantor, MD, is a Harvard psychiatrist who has been in full private practice in Boston and New York City.
