Occupation: Psychologist specializing in emotional issues such as love, grief, fear and loss.

Cutie Mark: A pink heart with a bandage on it, that represents her gift to read and fell other ponies’ emotions and help ponies overcome their emotional issues. One day while at school, she noticed classmate crying in the playground. She could feel the sadness radiating off him and read the frustration in his tear filled eyes. Rather than reject her ability, she used it to understand what he was going through and after talking with him managed to calm him down and make him feel better. Her teacher saw this and congratulated Heart on discovering her talent and helping out her classmate. Then in a bright flash, her cutie mark appeared.

History: Heart Healer was born in the Crystal Empire to two loving parents. Her father, Healing Touch, was an alternative medicine therapist, using massage therapy and acupuncture to treat pain. Her mother, Love Heart, owned a matchmaking service, offering to help ponies find their compatible special someponies. Their family was very happy and full of love.

Ever since she was a child, Heart Healer knew she was different. She wondered why bullies in school seemed to affect her so much, or why when she saw a pony crying it made her break out into tears, or why she was having a good day and some other pony wasn't she felt like she was having the worst day ever. This continual assault of emotions made Heart Healer wonder if something was wrong with her.

Luckily, her parents had an idea what was going on. They explained to her that she was able to feel and "read" emotions, better than other ponies. While other Crystal Ponies have empathy, hers was extremely potent. They encouraged her to see how she could use her ability to help others. Knowing that this was not something wrong with her but is her talent, Heart Healer felt better.

After receiving her cutie mark and finishing grade school, Heart Healer studied psychology. Her increased empathy allowed her to easily connect to patients. Life seemed to be moving along fine when suddenly Kind Sombra rose to power. Heart Healer desperately tried to help comfort the frightened ponies with her talent, but the corrupting power of fear the king had placed over the ponies trumped any help she could give. Eventually the fear and sadness she felt from others began to slowly corrupt her, making her doubt her talents. Doubt turned to fear and depression as the corruption took its toll on her mind, body and spirit.
With the defeat of King Sombra, the Empire vanished from existence for a thousand years. Heart Healer, like many other Crystal Ponies cannot recall what happened during those thousand years. When the Empire did return, Heart Healer still was filled with sadness and doubt which only increased when King Sombra made his return. Thanks to some strangers from beyond the borders of the Empire, Sombra was defeated a second and hopefully the last time. The power of the Crystal Heart also helped restore Heart Healer to her original state. Recently, Heart Healer has set up a clinic where she tries to assist ponies in emotional problems including love, anger, grief, and loss. She is always ready to share her insight and help establish happiness and harmony in anypony's life.

Personality: Normally Heart Healer has a calm optimistic personality. She is very friendly towards others and seeks meet as many ponies as possible. She is also very intelligent, having a desire to study not only psychology but many other topics. In her house and office she has an extensive collection of books and frequents the library often. Her personality can be described as being nerdy in the way she speaks about her career and the excitement she gets with learning and in her appearance. She is not socially awkward but is by no means the social butterfly that other ponies are.

Heart Healer possesses he ability of empathy as her talent. This means she can read and feel the emotions of others. She cannot change the emotions of others however, but she can use even the most subtle of clues in body language, voice inflection and tone, facial expressions, and even the emotional vibes she gets from the pony to help them. Due to her ability, however, she can feel the emotions of others. In extreme cases her emotions become that of the one she's reading. Taking the time to calm herself and collect her thoughts, she is able to return to her normal state.

Besides her talent, Heart Healer has excellent communication skills which aids in her counseling sessions. She also has a fairly good organizational plan, although many might argue that her plan is more of an organized chaos. She also has a great attention to detail, another quality to aid in her sessions. The drawback is sometimes she becomes focused on a certain detail and will not rest until it is corrected or otherwise resolved.

Heart Healer has several things that she is fond of beside her counseling and books. She loves puzzles and games that challenges the mind, ones that she often is seen playing with between counseling sessions. She likes to exercise and the outdoors but isn’t really interesting in participating in sports. Sometimes she takes up writing or drawing, hobbies she considers very therapeutic to her, helping her to clear her mind. She has an affinity for the smell of lavender and often uses soap infused with the herb for her nighttime bath to help her relax and unwind. Chamomile tea also helps her with this. Heart Healer does have a sweet tooth, preferring spearmints, dark chocolate and a candy native to the crustal empire canned Rock Candy which is just coloured sugar that is reformed into little edible crystals.

Heart Healer does have a series of personality quirks beyond being somewhat nerdy. Despite the fact that she is in a very socially engaging job and that her ability involves interaction with ponies, her one personal fear is being completely and utterly alone. She also has her personal doubts about being able to be a good friend to others or a good special somepony, knowing that reading emotions is only part of understanding another pony. What she sometimes doesn't realize is this doubt can derail her chances of making new friends or finding a special somepony, creating a vicious cycle. She dislikes negativity like sadness or anger but knows that they are part of life. Still through her counseling she tries to restore a pony past to what she feels is their natural state of being happy. She abhors ponies that act apathetic towards other’s needs and tried to avoid such ponies at all costs.

Her biggest fear though is that King Sombra will return and the Empire will fall again. Not only does she hate the idea of seeing her friends and other townsfolk so happy, but there is another reason. She fears that the return of Sombra will in turn take her back to the time when she felt useless and when fear and doubt clouded her mind.

Through her counseling sessions and other interactions with ponies, Heart Healer tries to help as many ponies as she can to establish love and harmony in their lives.
