Yes, hypnotherapy is approved by the APA.
"In 1958, both the American Medical Association and the American Psychological Association recognized hypnotherapy as a valid medical procedure. Since 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has recommended hypnotherapy as a treatment for chronic pain."

In APA formatting, acronyms can be used as abbreviations if they are defined the first time they are used in text. Standard abbreviations like "et al." for et alia, "etc." for et cetera, "p." for page, and "vol." for volume are also commonly used. It is important to ensure that the abbreviation is widely recognized and understood by readers.
I think hypnotherapy is a bit of both. There are certain things that have to be done in a session but the way they are done is completely at the discretion of the hypnotherapist.
