Ceramicist & Clay Coach - Haarlem

Into the hands,
out of the head.

I work with clay as a way back to yourself - one session, one form, one honest hour at a time. No plan required. The material leads.


01Why work with me

I came to ceramics through lived experience, not a formal art education - and I've built my practice, and my coaching, on exactly that. I know what it's like to feel stuck, to not trust your own hands, to need permission before you'll try something. That's the space I hold for the people who come to me.

My practice is built around following the material rather than planning the outcome. Clay responds to touch before it responds to intention, and sitting with that, hands in the soft earth, tends to loosen something further up, too.

I teach beginners, coach people who feel stuck, and hold space - weekly, in Haarlem - for anyone who wants to work with their hands and see what comes up.
