“…Yapko (1994) also reports that therapists often place more trust in hypnotically recalled memories when it is not necessarily warranted. Many other clinicians commonly use hypnosis or similar techniques to "retrieve memories'' and generate significant grist for the therapeutic mill (Dolan, 1989;Lohyn, 1993;Mihe, 1993;Price, 1986;Siegel, 1990).

Accuracy of repressed memories recovered in hypnosis cannot be reliably determined with any greater certainty than non-hypnotically recalled events. Therefore, the practice of therapists' accepting hypnotically enhanced memories as veridical, absent corroborating evidence, is not advocated. A 52-year-old woman with a 27-year history of panic attacks and sleep disorder inadvertently recovered incest memories in hypnosis. Photographs and remembered events by other family members were thought by the patient to provide general support although they did not constitute actual proof of abuse. Implications are discussed.
