one thing you might want to check on....most USA states no longer use hypnosis for things like recovering repressed memories. this is due to....

documentations that it causes something called false memory syndrome (makes a persons mind conjure up details and whole memories that never happened) memories are not always literal/linear. sometimes one memory can be metaphors for many different events or many different emotions which can be mis interpretted as a traumatic event...

example when I went to a hypnotist to stop a bad habit what we thought was a repressed memory of abuse came up. when my therapist and I talked and checked out the facts we discovered that traumatic event could never have happened due to I had never been in the location of that traumatic event (the location did not exist) the people in the repressed memory conjured during hypnosis never existed. the repressed memory instead was a metaphor for my stress level at that time. I felt like I was being abused, taken for granted, manipulated by others, afraid to be honest with my parent figures, feeling like my parent and siblings still viewed me as a child not the age I was, excited about events happening around me....all kinds of emotions therefore my mind conjured a false memory in the form of me as a child being abused by people I had never met and in a location that never existed. the mind is a funny and amazing thing. it can conjure up anything you desire, anything you fear and anything in between.

another reason why here in the USA most hypnotists no longer use their craft toward leading someone towards retrieving repressed memories is because this is no longer admissible in court cases. there are many documentations to how therapists and other treatment providers have helped their clients recover repressed memories and then prosecuted their abusers and later that abuser being let free because of false accusations\false memory syndrome.

another reason most treatment providers in the USA no longer use hypnosis for recovering repressed memories is that the person doing the hypnotizing can be arrested and prosecuted if that repressed memory retrieved while under their care turns out to be a false memory conjured up while under their care.

my suggestion is let nature takes its course. if you do have a repressed memory it will show itself in time whether or not you are in therapy. sometimes its just a matter of being in the right moment at the right time...one of my repressed memories came when I was on a camping trip, no hypnosis, no special therapy, just me and my wife hanging out in a boat on a lake.
