It's definitely a questionable act. It could even be illegal, but that doesn't make it rape. The OP might have been having a moral dilemma with the question in his head and just wanted clarification, so he asked. I think the answers have been, for the most part, reasonable. There is no need to scream rape. Although if he had somehow gone through with it, it probably would have gotten the therapist fired/disbarred, and there would have been cause to question the legality of the situation ( rape case ). That would be a decision for the prosecutor's office and a judge and jury, and I don't think it would be all that clear cut of a case.
From what I've read about hypnotism, it can't make you do something you don't want to do anyway, but it can remove some inhibitions, which by implication means removing inhibitions that were in the way of what you wanted to do anyway.
