agoraphobic patient

While house calls are not unusual for psychiatrists treating geriatric or agoraphobic patients, home visits to children are rare, according to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists.

Bowlby suggested that separation anxiety may help cause the development of panic disorder in adulthood and that agoraphobic patients frequently describe parents as dominant, controlling, critical, frightening, rejecting, or overprotective, which matches (disputed) descriptions of Darwin's father as tyrannical (see below).
