As a hypnotherapist, I use techniques that help a client to access their past. One of them is a silent therapy technique where nothing is said, the subconscious just uses ideomotor signals (spontaneous body - finger - movements) to respond to questions. The result of this is often that clients will remember things in the past that relate to what is happening to them today - and this always does make them able to resolve modern issues like weight gain, panic attacks, smoking, even fetishes (for some people, they consider a fetish to be a problem, especially if pursuing the fetish is a potential threat to their existence.
Sometimes their subconscious gives answers that make no sense to them, for example, a client will say "why the age of 9, I can't remember anything significant happening at that age"
Maybe in those cases, there is something the subconscious will choose to withhold for the client's sake. Most of the time, the memory is pretty run of the mill stuff. But relevant to feeling an urge to respond in x way when y event occurs.
A more direct tool to retrieve buried memories is age regression. And this can be all the way back to just before birth. Some mothers (and midwives) would be appalled to hear their comments being repeated verbatim decades later by what was effectively, the smallest person in the room! Gotta chuckle at the mother that insists that the stiff dead parakeet could not have been seen. What is it? The figment of a baby's imagination.
Retrieving the memories is something that should be done with care and only someone trained, to avoid a situation of leading questions. Sometimes, a person has what is known as an abreaction on the couch. A reaction that could involve tears, shivering, or re-living a past traumatic event. Many clients come out of a session without any immediate recall of the abreaction, or aware that they had a reaction under trance, but with no memory of what was said. If asked "what was that all about" a therapist uses caution in responding. There is a reason why they haven't remembered details of what they said during the abreaction. It's also not the place to say "well, you said something about your Uncle (insert name here)" or "You were making drowning sounds". These are details that the subconscious can, again, re-introduce to conscious memory when it deems the person is better able to handle it. Invariably they return for the next session a little more clued in and fully ready to address the issue.
Accessing the memories can be beneficial when done the right way. But for those buried, they are buried by the subconscious mind for a very good reason.
