Serena Lomuscio

Welcome to my website, I am an Italian psychologist and hypnotherapist working in Amsterdam since 2019. I specialise in helping adults with problems related to anxiety, depression, relationship crisis, and life and career transitions. I graduated in Work and Organisational Psychology from the University of Turin in 2014 and in 2023 I chose to specialise in hypnotherapy at the OMNI hypnosis school in Amsterdam.

 

I offer support to adult clients who are experiencing difficulties and transitions in their lives, helping them to develop internal resources to cope with life’s challenges and achieve greater happiness and psychological well-being.

 

I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship and strive to establish a relationship of trust and active listening with my clients. I am here to help people overcome their problems, providing them with the necessary tools to cope with difficult situations and improve their psychological and emotional well-being.

 

I use a Gestalt therapy approach that considers and integrates emotional, physical, and psychological aspects. I propose a co-built process that is established together with the client based on their goals.

 

During my life, I have had to face complex and painful experiences such as the loss of both parents in childhood and depression in adulthood. Personally, I went through a two-year therapeutic process with a psychotherapist and underwent a personal growth journey using Ayahuasca in specialised centres. These experiences have helped me in my professional relationship with my clients as they have allowed me to empathise with them at a very deep level.

Why my clients are satisfied

"Coming from a previous couple of months of therapy, I could not recommend Serena more sincerely. In fact, the journey I am taking with her is allowing me to achieve results that I never thought were possible with the previous therapist. There are several reasons for this. First of all, speaking with someone closer to my age and with similar experiences allows me to enter into a harmony that greatly facilitates the understanding of my reality. In any case, Serena's empathy is really noticeable, which makes me extremely comfortable and allows for a connection that makes a difference in a therapy journey. Secondly, Serena is able to challenge me and "push" the conversation to the right point, accompanying me in the process. In addition, the approach adopted includes various methods of therapy, in addition to the classic direct conversation. All this has allowed me to reach such a depth in a few sessions that I could not reach in the previous journey in several months. Lastly, and perhaps the most important part, Serena shares various practical methods suitable for the person to tackle their challenges beyond the sessions. This thing is central to me because it avoids becoming dependent on your therapist and continuing to deal with problems ex post. Instead, it gives me the opportunity to prevent, face things directly, and work on myself independently. I think that the choice to undertake this therapy journey is one of the best I have ever made and it is making me really proud of the milestones I am achieving. I couldn't recommend starting it with Serena more."
