Lost in the mall technique is a type of therapy that is used to help people who have false memories, like they think something happened even if it didn't. In the therapy, the therapist talks with the person and helps them make a story about a time when they got lost in a mall. This story includes things like what stores or people were in the mall and other details about the experience. The therapist will then have the person tell the story over and over again until they start to believe it. By doing this, the therapist hopes to replace the person's false memory with a more accurate one.
