"A former anorexia patient is suing a US treatment centre, claiming one of its psychologists implanted horrific memories while she was hypnotised so that she'd extend her stay and run up a huge bill.
Lisa Nasseff accuses Castlewood Treatment Centre psychologist Mark Schwartz of making her believe she had been part of a satanic cult that committed unthinkable acts and that she had been raped several times and had multiple personalities.
She stayed at the centre for 15 months and racked up a US $650,000 bill.
Her attorney says he has been contacted by other clinic patients who make similar claims and are considering suing.
Schwartz and the treatment centre's director, Nancy Albus, deny the allegations. She says the centre will vigorously defend itself.
