Her story begins in 1985 when she sought help for an eating disorder. Within weeks she was wrongly diagnosed as having seen severely sexually traumatized as a child and her consequent therapy was focused on "recovering" memories of that abuse.Making Memories is a documentary of Pasley's descent into drug-and-therapy-induced mental illness and her recovery six years later. Patrick E. Clancy joins Pasley in exploring the development and uncritical acceptance of this dangerous therapy movement of the nineties., Making Memories, 2008
