Hypnotism is done by psychatrist where they make us go into unconscious mind or state and ask us the things which happened in the past. They try to erase the problems faced by us in the past.

Please refer to fatwa id : 12620 where i have sent a brief question so that you will have a clear idea. Kindly advise your fatwa for that also. Best regards!
