Answer summary

Hypnosis is not a primary treatment for schizophrenia and should never replace psychiatric care, medication, therapy, or crisis support. In some cases, and only with a treating clinician's approval, hypnotherapy may be considered for practical support goals such as stress management, sleep routines, smoking cessation, or coping skills.
