Clinical Hypnotists
Which would you choose?
If you were to go to a psycologist to help relieve your addiction to smoking or eatting food. Both psycologist offer hypnotherapy. One psycologist moonlights on the weekends at clubs as a hypnatist. Would you chose A. the Psycologist that moonlights as a hypnotist on the weekends or B. the Psycologist that only offers clinical hypnotic services?
Both therapist are clinical hypnotherapist, but A. enjoys the entertainment possibilities of his skill, but I see your point about thinking he needs the money. If hypnotherapist A. had plenty of money and enjoyed moonlighting as a hypnatist entertainer at clubs, who would you chose as your psycologist?
I would choose psychologist B if I was aware of psychologist A's transgressions. I would assume that since psychologist A moonlights as a hypnotist at clubs he must therefore need the extra money due to inadequacy as a professional, seek to capitalize on a psychological phenomenon, showboat his prowess toward hypnoses, possibly discuss patients outside of work, and even act condescending or boastful toward patients.
The argument that psychologist A simply loves what he does, and wants to spend all his free time doing it doesn't really work for me. Hypnosis as a public spectacle carries too many negative connotations for that argument to be plausible, at least for me.
