Is this in the context of a specific disorder? I can imagine with some disorders it might be possible to separate (and treat) the disorder from the rest of the mind without changing the mind too much (still strikes me as unlikely though). But when it comes to autism, for example, it really does seem that it's inextricably linked to the functioning of the brain as a whole on a very low level. In this case it's more of a 'holistic system'. It would be the difference between 1) giving a kid with one arm a bionic second arm, or 2) trying graft bionic arms on a kid born with wings (possibly by amputating the wings first).
