Meet Nomsa Looser
Hi! I’m Nomsa Looser, a passionate psychological counsellor and sexology and relationship coach dedicated to helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of the human experience.
I hold a Master of Science (MSc) in Psychology and Counselling with specialised training in Sexology. My journey began with a simple yet profound mission: to create a safe, non-judgemental space where individuals can openly explore their thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
Before relocating to Zurich, I gained valuable experience working in various mental health facilities across South Africa, supporting individuals with diverse psychological needs. In 2016, I moved to Zurich with my family, navigating the challenges and joys of relocation while continuing my work in Psychology.
For the past five years, I have been running a private practice in Zurich, helping individuals with mental health, relationship, and personal development concerns. Since 2021, I have also been a freelance counsellor at Calda Clinic, a prestigious private mental health clinic on Zurich’s Gold Coast specialising in mental health, substance abuse, and behavioural dependency treatment. Additionally, I collaborate with private schools in Zurich and Lucerne, delivering sexual education and substance abuse prevention programs.
I use a compassionate, evidence-based, and client-centred approach, ensuring that each person receives personalised support tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to empower individuals to improve their mental well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life.
Outside of my professional work, I love spending time with my family, walking my dogs, playing tennis, and getting lost in a good book.

My client-centred approach empowers you to transform perceived weaknesses into strengths, offering understanding, compassion, and support. With humour and empathy, I’ll help you set achievable goals, develop helpful skills, and empower you to reach your fullest potential.
Trauma can reveal our vulnerabilities and manifest as anxiety, depression, or grief, but together we will face and overcome these challenges. In my approach I use cognitive-behavioural, dialectical-behavioural, and motivational interviewing. I believe in identifying and teaching resilience. I am open to modifying my style of communication to meet your needs.
