Is Hypnotherapy or Hypnosis a form of “mind control”?

Hypnotherapy, or Hypnosis, is certainly not mind control. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. The hypnotherapist is unable to make you do or say anything against your will unless you wanted to. During hypnosis, you remain in control and are awake and alert the whole time.
