A hypnotist can not "do" anything "to" you - you can not become hypnotized unless you want to be. A hypnotist is simply someone who guides another person into an hypnotic state, usually by asking him/ her to focus on a fixed point, or an idea or feeling, whilst encouraging relaxation.
Hypnosis is a naturally occurring state which most people enter spontaneously on a regular basis (eg daydreaming), and all a hypnotist does is deliberately activate this state: it's a form of interpersonal communication, coaching even, and whilst someone "in hypnosis" will be more responsive to suggestion, they can not be made to do or say anything against their will.
Hypnosis is not "mind control"; most hypnotized people remain fully aware (they're simply in a very relaxed, but highly focused, state of mind - indeed, they're "hyperattentive"!), and can come out of hypnosis whenever they wish. People hypnotized for stage shows are usually stable extrovert types who don't mind performing - "being hypnotized" is simply an "excuse" for them to play around, do silly things; to "show off". Many, probably most in fact, are people who in other contexts (eg with a group of close friends) will play around, "let go"/ "go wild", be the "life and soul of the party" etc.. The hypnotist is, in effect, "giving them permission" to do what they do anyway, but in a public domain. It's social role play, that's all.
You can not "get stuck in hypnosis" - if left unattended, a hypnotized person will either just "come to" of his/ her own accord (probably after no more than a few minutes), or fall asleep to awaken naturally a few hours later.
Hypnosis is not "brainwashing" - quite the opposite, in fact. Brainwashing is abusive/ coercive mind control; hypnosis is a sophisticated form of consensual interpersonal communication utilizing naturally occurring and completely normal brain states.
What else can I help you with?
Are you still in control while being hypnotised?
Well, it depends upon what kind of hypnotism is used. Western or Eastern. If it is Western, then you're in full control even if you're being hypnotised! But, if you're hypnotised using the Eastern (Indian) method, then you're in full control of the hypnotist!
What directions does a hypnotist give when putting someone under?
A hypnotist typically asks the person to focus on their voice, relax their body, and imagine themselves in a peaceful or altered state of mind. They may also suggest visualizing a calming scene or repeating certain phrases to induce a trance-like state.
Why is it so important that the person being hypnotized trust his or hers hypnotist?
Trusting the hypnotherapist is important because it creates a safe and comfortable environment for the individual to relax and be open to suggestion. When the person trusts the hypnotist, they are more likely to fully engage in the process and benefit from the therapy. Lack of trust can create barriers to the hypnotic state and hinder the effectiveness of the session.

What is the difference between hypnotist and clinical hypnotherapist?
This is a very personal view. Please explore other views for your own conclusions.A hypnotist can cover stage hypnosis also and is not necessarily there to provide therapy. Therapy assists the client with difficulties he or she may have. A hypnotist may well be able to do this, but the title 'hypnotherapist' makes that clear. Therefore one should look for that title when seeking help.Also, a hypnotist may be able to provide therapy, but a hypnotherapist is involved in therapy only and is therefore likely to have the most experience.Clinical hypnotherapy, in my view, means very little. 'Clinical' infers 'of a clinic,' which will be the case with many practitioners operating from a clinic, or it infers a scientific credibility which has not yet been sufficiently achieved in the view of the main scientific community, although many are now looking favourably upon it.. As a hypnotherapist, I believe in the efficacy of this therapy. However, there are many terms that could be placed before the title of hypnotherapist. For example, 'transpersonal' is a good description if one feels that the therapy goes beyond, say, behaviourism or has some deeper effect than the mere changing of habits. Transpersonal infers mind, body and spirit therapy, which is the basis of most complementary therapies.I would therefore prefer the term 'transpersonal hypnotherapist. It is a matter of choice and perspective.
