Perhaps.
I guess it depends upon the etiology of the agoraphobia and how it should be treated at each point along the path to recovery. I am not familiar enough with the treatment protocols devised for agoraphobia, but it is conceivable that exposing someone to a situation prematurely might do more harm than good. What has your your investigation of the medical literature regarding agoraphobia taught you?

I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
