 More specifically Harley boasts the following:
-'''Psychological Training''' - Regardless of how she's decided to live her life, Harley is a trained criminal psychologist with diplomas and everything. She can quickly asses someone's mental state when she's being serious and tends to offer good advice that she needs to learn to listen to. It's worth noting that this path in her life was a sudden decision brought about by the idea of making a name for herself working at Arkham Asylum. Exactly how much training Harley has had, and remembers, may be questionable but she does know enough about the mind to be very manipulative when she sets her mind to it. This is rare, however.

There was only one mistake in her five years working at Arkham Asylum, two if you count the Joker, but she tends to forget about that first one so it's alright.

Exactly how much training Harley has had, and remembers, may be questionable but she does know enough about the mind to be very manipulative when she sets her own mind to it. This is rare, however.
 '''Writing''' - During her brief time as a psychologist, Harleen somehow found the time to write and publish two books: "Psycho Killers and the Women What Love Them Too Much" and "I'm Okay You're Okay He's Kind of Weird." After being declared legally sane she almost wrote a fall up novel for Columbine Press billed as a tell-all about her years with the Joker and her encounters with Batman. In reality "Masks of Love" turned out to be a fictional romance story about a master criminal who falls in love with a caped crimefighter named Owlman. This book was never published.

 '''Easily Distracted''' - Self explanatory. Small things will distract her at the worst moments. Possibly the reason she makes random lists when she's nervous.

 |Skills=Harley has a natural aptitude for acrobatics stemming from her training in gymnastics, and an uncanny (although rarely used) ability to manipulate people from her PhDs in psychology and neurological disorders. She has also shown, on more than one occasion, to have an impressive acting ability; disguising not only her voice but her body language as well. However after befriending Pamela Isley she was given a strong dose of the same anti-toxins that Poison Ivy used for herself, leaving Harley immune to almost any poison - a useful talent for someone who tries to spend most of her time attached to the Joker's arm. The anti-toxin injection also boosted Harley's acrobatic ability allowing her to go toe-to-toe with some of Gotham's heroes.

-'''Toxin Immunity''' - Thanks to a cocktail created by Poison Ivy, Harley now has a natural immunity to all forms of toxins and an incredibly high recovery time.
+'''Writing''' - During her brief time as a psychologist, Harleen somehow found the time to write and publish two books: "Psycho Killers and the Women What Love Them Too Much" and "I'm Okay You're Okay He's Kind of Weird."

-'''Enhanced Gymnastic Ability''' - Originally trying to be a gymnast, Harley has been trained well and often shows this through her cartwheels and jumping ability. Another side effect of Poison Ivy's influence was a boost to that natural ability allowing her to leap incredibly high and not hurt herself on the way back down. It doesn't hurt her ability to fight at all either.
+'''Toxin Immunity''' - Thanks to a cocktail created by Poison Ivy, Harley now has a natural immunity to all known forms of toxins and an incredibly high recovery time. That said, Ivy can - and has - still poisoned Harley when her rage has gotten the better of her.
 '''Trained by the Joker''' - Whether good ol' Mistah J is around or not, Harley knows his secrets and can deduce his plans even when she's not a part of them. She also knows how to fully recreate his arsenal of weapons and explosives making her extremely dangerous in the right situations.
-'''Acting''' - While not formerly trained to be an actress, she actually is quite an experienced actor. In fact her Harley Quinn persona is so dramatically different in voice and body language that she has actually fooled professional reporters into believing she was someone she's not simply by acting how she did before meeting the Joker.

In fact her Harley Quinn persona is so dramatically different in voice and body language that she has actually fooled professional reporters into believing she was someone she's not simply by acting how she did before meeting the Joker. Unfortunately doing so requires extra effort these days as she's been Harley for too long to outright quit now.
 '''Home Economics''' - While the basics of 'how to keep yourself alive' may not be needed it is worth mentioning Harley's skills which have thus far managed to keep her escaping the Joker's murderous tendencies somehow. She cooks, she cleans, she tends his wounds, she fixes his costumes, cleans his clothes, feeds his hyenas (well, her hyenas now), she even repairs his toys and sets up traps for him. Maybe he just keeps her around for that. He couldn't possibly LIKE her... could he?
-'''Underworld Connections''' - Being a former criminal psychologist at Arkham Asylum, Harley has many contacts both in the criminal world as well as the medical field - although most would rather not associate with her due to her close ties with the Joker.

-Since discovering a way to go back and forth between Twisted and Gotham, Harley's been using it as a learning experience getting information that she otherwise shouldn't have. Yet, somehow despite having a Ph.D. no one ever believes her when she says something really out of place like calling that reporter from the Daily Planet Superman or telling people that [[Batman]] is a billionaire playboy.

However due to Luna leaving Twisted and taking all the wives along with her, Harleen was once more out of work and went back to Gotham again to reflect on her next course of action.
