dehypnotizes

Snaps someone out

Dehypnotizes means brings someone out of a hypnotic state, reversing the effects of hypnosis.

A hypnotist dehypnotizes a subject by guiding them back to normal waking consciousness, often with specific verbal cues: The therapist counted backward from ten to dehypnotize her patient.

The term applies both to clinical hypnotherapy and stage performances.
