Personal Coaching

Do you sometimes feel stuck in your creative journey, unsure of how to move forward? Personal challenges can make it difficult to fully embrace your own perspective and trust the direction that feels right for you. I understand how overwhelming that can be.

Through a thoughtful and personal approach, I help creatives like you navigate these moments, reconnect with their vision, and find clarity in their work. Whether you need guidance, inspiration, or simply a fresh perspective, I’m here to support you in rediscovering your creative flow.

Your Art Coach for Creativity and Growth

Hi, I’m Gemma, and I’m passionate about helping creatives navigate the unique challenges of their journey—because I’ve been there myself. For years, I worked to combine my love for art and psychology, often searching for balance and direction. It wasn’t always easy, but those struggles shaped who I am today. Now, I’m dedicated to supporting others who face similar challenges, helping them find clarity, confidence, and their own unique path.

With a deep-rooted passion for guiding and inspiring others, Gemma brings her unique blend of psychology, creativity, and international experience to her work as an art coach. Having spent years as an independent psychologist helping young people navigate their studies and career paths, Gemma now focuses on empowering creatives to find their way in the art world and beyond.

Her mission is to support artists, designers, and other creatives in identifying their strengths, refining their skills, and discovering a sense of fulfilment in finding their place in the creative world.

Whether you’re just starting out, feeling stuck, or ready to take your creative practice to the next level, she offers tailored guidance addressing the emotional and practical challenges that often accompany a creative lifestyle.

International Experience, Local Connection

Having lived in different countries, Gemma brings a broad perspective to her coaching. Fluent in English and Dutch and conversational in French, she connects with creatives from diverse backgrounds and adapts her approach to fit individual needs.

Based in Leiden, The Netherlands, Gemma works with artists and creatives both locally and internationally, creating a supportive space for growth—whether you have local roots or are finding your place in a new environment.

What others say

Lucia, illustrator

January 2025
I chose to seek Gemma's coaching because, on top of being a wonderful artist, she is a warm and welcoming person. While looking at my artwork she instinctively knew which pieces I had the most fun painting. She asked me insightful questions about my proces and her advice encouraged me to stick with what I enjoy creating, without losing sight of what resonates with my actual and potential clients, so that I can be mindful with both the financial and the creative sides of my work.

Vlindertje, Artist

Gemma is someone with a big heart. I can safely say that the progression in my artwork is largely thanks to her. I didn’t feel like continuing doing art and right at that moment she picked me up and helped me go forward. Gemma’s talent is that she relies on everyone’s own unique strength. She has great people skills and because of that she recognises many situations. I’ve talked to several psychologists in my life, but rarely to one that didn’t try to push you in their own direction. Gemma is a master in listening to and understanding what people really need. She knows how to make you stronger by using your own strengths.

Kaylee, Entrepreneur

Not to sound too sentimental but Gemma, you have truly been my guardian angel througout my process and just what I needed. Thank you.

Kirsten, Voice over Artist

Gemma knows how to quickly get to the essence of your issues. In her own way she gives many insights and practical tools to lower barriers and help find your way. She helped me to think in a problem-solving way and turn ideas into action. With her warm and creative personality, she creates a comfortable and open atmosphere in a no-nonsense way.
