Clay as Therapy, Art for Growth
‘Theracotta‘ is the name I give my approach to teaching ceramics. I believe in the therapeutic benefits of working with clay to bring healing, joy, and self-expression to people of all ages. Combining the timeless art of pottery with a therapeutic approach, I offer the opportunity for adults and children to explore their creativity and discover the calming effects of working with their hands. If you’re looking to manage a little stress, improve focus, or simply find a creative outlet, my sessions are designed to meet you where you are and help you grow at your own pace.
Through hands-on activities like moulding, sculpting, and working on the pottery wheel, participants can experience the therapeutic benefits of tactile engagement. For individuals with mental health challenges or special needs, the process of shaping clay provides a unique opportunity to develop motor skills, express emotions, and build self-esteem. I guide participants through tailored projects, encouraging mindfulness, patience, and personal achievement with every creation. Each piece of clay can become more than just art—a journey of healing and growth.
I welcome people of all abilities and backgrounds, offering termly classes, one-to-one sessions, and family workshops to foster connection and joy. Whether you’re shaping clay for the first time or rekindling a love for art, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Join me and discover how the simple act of creating can inspire profound transformation.
