Is there a risk that the therapist will plant false memories?
No. This is impossible with the particular techniques of Whole-Being Hypnotherapy. The therapist will never tell you what has happened in your life, nor will she use leading questions to steer your in certain directions. The therapist helps you open the door into your inner mind. Inside, you will find whatever your inner mind wants to give you. You do not need to tell therapist what memories come up for you. You are welcome to share what comes up, and that will be heard in complete confidence. But, if you prefer, you can keep the memories to yourself. The therapeutic method involves gently guiding you in dealing with the memories, whatever they might be. How this is done may become clearer if you read the extended examples of dialogue from real therapy sessions in the book, I’m Afraid of Hypnosis but I Don’t Know Why.
