Uneducated about hypnosis.

I have recently encountered someone with hypnosis as a fetish. The experience wasn't bad but i didn't entertain bc it seemed like a lot of rules that i dont think i have time for right now. I am currently in an ending marriage that has brought a lot of self-hate issues up and am the lowest i have been in a long time. I was thinking that maybe I could try hypnosis as a therapy. I just learned that was a thing but honestly dont know if I can trust someone enough to relax enough for it to work.

I was hypnotized from a hypnosis DVD when I was younger so I know I can be hypnotized but it was the first time it has ever happened.

How do you find someone for this? Should I play around recreational (not sure what that means when it comes to this topic tbh) first? How do you relax with a stranger?
