Hypnotherapy?

During our last session, my therapist suggested that hypnotherapy might be something worth trying. I tend to "space out" often in session, which, he says, is indicative of hypnotic ability.

The idea really scares me. Though he assures me that this isn't at all the case, at the very mention of hypnotism I felt an intense fear of losing control.

Not that I expect anyone to be reading this blog, but I'd be interested in hearing some personal experiences with this.

I know how much I have trouble relaxing as it is, and with the extra tension the mere idea of hypnotherapy caused me, I have doubts about it working.
