Answer to Question 1

The most basic problem is concern about the memories' validity. Trauma-linked material often pertains to early childhood, and it may not be possible to collect objective information to confirm that the recovered memories are true. Additionally, even non-traumatic memories show distortion over time. Clients can fill in gaps in memory based on therapists' suggestions or leading questions.
A client's present life situation and the need to explain the past might distort
a person's memories. A therapist's beliefs about the causes of a person's psychological problems might also distort the client's memories by directing
a patient's thoughts in a particular direction.
