Laura Colomban

HealthArts is an integrative practice which explores through talking, sensing, tuning and processing the history of the body, trying to reconnect our physical, mental, imaginative, spiritual, historical, sexual, emotional selves. I am Laura Colomban, an integrative somatic therapist and trainee integrative psychotherapist based in London. My practice brings together body-based and relational approaches to support people through the things that feel stuck, in the body, in relationships, in the stories we carry about ourselves. I work with the understanding that the body is not separate from our psychological life. It holds memory, emotion and meaning, often before we find words for any of it. In sessions, I draw on somatic movement, expressive arts and body-centred awareness to help clients explore what lives beneath the surface: the physical sensations, the impulses that get interrupted, the parts of experience that have never quite found a place to land. Everything happens at your pace, with your needs at the centre. I have worked with people navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, creative loss and significant life transitions, as well as those who simply feel disconnected from themselves and want to find their way back. I am a certified practitioner of the Tamalpa Life/Art Process®, a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator with ISMETA, and a registered Health Practitioner with OneDance UK.
