I think there is a serious market for a new area of specialization:  
HP therapy.  It could help people suffering from:

-addiction
-withdrawal
-disassociation from the non-HP world
-post-traumatic stress disorder (there's going to be a high incidence 
of this if beloved characters start dying and/or turning into dark 
wizards)
-love affairs with fictional characters
-love affairs of fictional characters
-fictional love affairs of fictional characters
-obsessive-compulsive disorder (for those who have taken to compiling 
lists of the characters to see if there were REALLY 125 voices in GoF 
as Jim Dale claimed...I've counted 90 so far)
-unresolved grief
-persistent nightmares featuring bursts of green light, high cackling 
laughs, or evil wizard couples in leather pants
-hallucinations wherein every skinny black-haired teenager on the 
street appears to possess a certain unusual scar

D'you think managed care would cover it?

P.S. You think I'm making this up . . . I've heard of a shrink who 
works solely with people who are ABD (grad students who've finished 
All But Dissertation).  Someone out in Southern California is probably 
way ahead of me and has already hung out a shingle.
