Base Class: Bard
Everyone knows a good performance can make you feel better, so what better specialization to pick as a bard than the College of Therapy? You weave your songs through with careful healing, helping both physically and psychologically with your words. Bringing care and empathy into a world of dangers and death is a most important role, and if you feel you are apt to take on the task, the College of Therapy may be for you.

Improved Insight
When you choose this college at third level, you gain proficiency in the insight skill. In addition, your continued study of the psyche allows you to guide yourself and others. You learn the cantrip Guidance, which doesn't count against the number of bard cantrips you know. For you, it has a range of 30 feet when you cast it.
And How Does That Make You Feel?
You learn the spell Calm Emotions, which doesn't count against the number of bard spells you know. When you cast this spell, you may choose * to target one creature instead of an area of effect, giving this creature disadvantage on their saving throw.
In addition, you can expend a bardic inspiration die to create an aura of protection around yourself that lasts for one minute. You, and any allies within 15 feet of you, can add your charisma modifier to their saving throws.
At 6th level, this aura expands to 30 feet, and at 14th level it also grants resistance to psychic damage.
Guiding Hope
At sixth level, you learn the spell Beacon of Hope, this counts as a bard spell for you and does not count toward the number of bard spells you know. You may cast this spell once per long rest without expending a spell slot. In addition, you gain resistance to all psychic damage.
Inspiring Presence
At fourteenth level, your inspiration affects every ally who can see or hear you. When you expend a bardic inspiration die, every chosen ally within 30 feet of you gains temporary hit points equal to your level plus your Charisma modifier.
