| - Mindhealing is an extremely rare specialisation that a very limited number of Healers take on top of the usual Trainee program at St. Mungo's. In addition to the full complement of knowledge required of a Healer, Mindhealers are also trained in a variety of means and methods of dealing with damage to the wizarding mind. It includes topics such as:
* Recovering memories suppressed or lost to Obliviation.
* Healing physical and mental damage caused by spells, up to and including the Cruciatus
* Untangling curses and similar magics causing possession-type effects
* Lucid dreaming techniques Since the specialty is rare, the training of an individual Mindhealer tends to be as much apprenticeship in an art as formalised training. Legilimency and Occlumency are universal, but other details vary. Some Mindhealers also find it useful to dabble in Muggle psychology and even in Muggle drugs to assist their works. Obviously any use of Muggle drugs in this capacity would be illegal under Muggle law, but it's a distinction that the small fraternity of Mindhealers doesn't always trouble itself with.
