Best Answer

Yes. Hypnosis was broadly used by the first psychoanalysts and even today they still use, as well as psychologists from other schools (namely the cognitivists). It's a scientific way to access the mind without the repression of the superego, and it's very effective particularly treating addictions (namely cigarette addiction).

Dissociation is related to hypnosis in that hypnotic trance also involves a temporarily altered state of consciousness

Dissociation was explored and "treated" in the 18th and early 19th centuries through hypnosis, crystal gazing, Ouija boarding, and other parapsychological endeavors.

While the effects and benefits of hypnosis are still debated, dissociation (see depersonalization disorder) has yet to find a truly effective cure/treatment.
