A slow start to the year
This year I noticed how differently my pottery and therapy practices reveal themselves. Clay gives me something literal to hold — pieces made, classes taught, shelves filled. Therapy unfolds quietly, often without anything to “show” except a nervous system that breathes easier. One moment stays with me — a client finding and holding his small boy in parts work. No fixing, no strategy, just connection. These are the shifts that change a life, slowly and invisibly. Timelines belong to the body, not the calendar. If you haven’t reflected yet, perhaps your year starts now.
Discovering our parts
For many years I have worked in the separate fields of clay and therapy, and now I’m starting to slowly integrate them in the same space. Through touch, shape, and presence we can discover our inner world, connect with our parts, and listen to what lives quietly inside us. Parts in Clay grew from this meeting of material and ethereal, a space where creativity becomes a path toward healing.
