Hypnosis to sleep is a scary concept for some because it is wrongly associated with lying on a couch and being under the control of a hypnotist you've only just met.
All sorts of stories have been publicized over the years citing incidents of abuse of position and general negative experiences.
The good is that hypnosis doesn't have to mean losing control, and neither does it need to be conducted by a hypnotist/therapist.
Sleep starts to happen when mental focus switches from external to internal reality. When you naturally start to cross the divide from wakefulness into sleep, your mind starts to generate images which come from the part of your brain that dreams and imagines. So purposefully making yourself imagine things can encourage sleep onset. However, choose the content of your imaginings carefully! Worrying uses the imagination, of course, but it produces stress hormones that make us more alert, so this type of internal focus doesn't lead to sleep.
Instead, close your eyes and exercise your imagination in a way that makes you feel good. On no account try to sleep, because trying too hard can just drive it away. Just focus on exercising your imagination and let sleep be a happy by-product if it chooses to be. And if you succeed in relaxing yourself deeply but remain awake for a little while, you are still getting all the physical and mental benefits of rest. So relax!
