I think one of that most worrisome things about the WW in the books is that when it comes to mental health they don't care. They have a very primitive view of mental health, like with Sirius. He had a problem, they saw it they even spoke of it! Using it against him in front of Harry, But not one person did anything to help. Sirius was pushed aside as a nuisance only useful because he provided a place for order meetings, and kept the house elf under control. Harry himself has several emotional problems but they are all just ignored. The general attitude seems to be "If a can't wave my wand to fix it you just have to get over it." So if some one wanted help with mental or emotional trauma they would need a good muggle psychiatrist.
