I am Yvonne Frost, the founder of Art And Mind, a hypnotherapist, artist and an Advanced Drawing and Talking Practitioner. Having taught in secondary schools in Suffolk and Essex for 20 years, I have experienced how difficult it is to access mental health services for young people. For 15 years I specialised in working with SEND pupils, and trained in Drawing and Talking Therapy and other mental wellbeing interventions to help support SEMH needs.
As a Drawing and Talking Practitioner, I continue to support children and teens with a range of mental health needs in Colchester.
As a hypnotherapist I support women in achieving specific outcomes and making desired changes in their lives.
As an artist I have first hand experience of the important social and mental health benefits of creating art.

Hypnotherapy for:
Anxiety and Stress

Relationship Issues
Hypnotherapy involves inducing a state of deep relaxation, often referred to as a trance or hypnotic state. In this relaxed state, your mind becomes highly focused and receptive to suggestion. It's important to note that this state is not the same as being asleep or unconscious; you are fully aware and in control during the process.
"Had such a fun time at the Drawing and Talking, guided meditation and art session. For someone who can only draw stick men it was so therapeutic and I got so much out of it. The group was small and it felt so comfortable to talk in a group. I will definitely book again. Thank you for running this and making us all feel so relaxed." Women's group participant
"I have never felt so relaxed." Hypnotherapy client
"It helps me calm down and focus... I feel safe." Drawing and Talking client
Creating art is part of who I am but you don’t need to be ‘artistic’ to enjoy creating it.
Creating art allows people to process and release pent-up emotions and reduce emotional stress. Focusing on the creative process can divert attention from stress factors and even act as a kind of meditation.
It is also a lot of fun!

No drawing skill is required as the marks on the paper are symbolic and are discussed using story telling and the language of imagination. This helps to reframe past experiences and trauma and to help overcome difficult emotions. It engages the subconscious where memories are stored and habits formed.
Drawing and Talking is suitable for anyone from the age of 5, who has suffered trauma or has underlying emotional difficulties.
Trauma takes many forms and puts the brain into survival mode, so that the individual is unable to relax or engage with the world around them in a fully productive way. For children this can result in becoming disengaged from education and can even lead to exclusion.
This therapy helps individuals recognise and process, emotions, triggers and behaviours. They are able to take back control of their behaviour and most importantly have higher self-esteem.
It is designed to complement, not replace, other specialist therapies.
Contact me for a free initial assessment to gauge suitability and answer any questions.
The primary goal of hypnotherapy is to help you achieve specific outcomes or make desired changes in your life. These goals are typically discussed and agreed upon between you and the therapist before the hypnotherapy session.
Personalised hypnotherapy recording *when used as part of the treatment plan.
Hypnotherapy is highly individualized, with the therapist tailoring the techniques and suggestions to your specific needs and goals.
The first 30 minute assessment will determine whether hypnotherapy is suitable for you.
