Hello slowpoke,

I am so sorry to hear about your partners Agoraphobia. I know it has to be so hard to be in that situation. It sounds like you really care about her but just aren't sure how to help her. The best advice I can give is to be as understanding as possible although I know it is very hard, You need to push your partner to get her to really enjoy the time that she has outside the home and that will empower her. I would start somewhere where there's not a lot of activity. A quiet restaurant or a quiet park somewhere quiet but if she refuses these tips then just be understanding and accept it, don't be angry or push her to do anything if she says no, just be there for her and she will soon want to do that in her own time with you.
