Does anyone have a link to a story, mentioned on the main list lo
these many months ago, about a therapist who used the ideas of a
Dementor and a Patronus to work with kids around their depression?
Or it might have been Boggarts? I was telling a friend about it and
she got very interested and wanted details. I can't find it in a
search of the main list, but memory is so vague that I'm using the
wrong words.
It's possible that it wasn't even a story but just someone relating a
personal anecdote or one from someone they knew, but in any case I'd
love to track it down. If it rings a bell, let me know--
Thanks,
Amy
