jewellery & art therapy

/// Based in Amsterdam, Tel Aviv & Black Forest

Based on my professional career of many years I have experience in teaching students and patients with rheumatism, partially sighted students, as well as students with sensory issues, attention deficit, and students on the neurodiversity spectrum. I teach my students through focus and rhythm orientated bilateral metalwork exercises.

Since 2023 I volunteer at the Paralympic Centre Ramat Gan and at Beit Hanna Tel Aviv with bi lateral excersises via goldsmithing, jewellery making, supported by rhythm elements, and art and dance therapy. As it is a new field and pioneer work, a lot of my work is also centered around research. Both places are very open minded, supportive towards new developments and encourage my experimenting in this field.
