Yes, I'm aware of this. I did say that "hypnosis" is an accepted term ALSO... I think it's good that people at least know to check the person out, and find out if they are certified at any skill. Of course someone that is certified with hypnosis yet doesn't "do" therapy would want an acceptable term to use. Using hypnosis is not all about therapy, right?

The most important thing, imo, is that a person goes to someone who knows what they are doing, and that someone is held accountable for that (i.e. by a certifying agency.) Next important, imo, is that they feel comfortable with them and can trust them.
