About Luigi
Luigi Romanelli is an AASW social worker with 20 years of clinical experience working in Launceston, Tasmania and across Australia. He helps people through periods of change, strain and uncertainty, including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and LGBT concerns.
His work often begins when patterns feel stuck or confidence has been shaken. He sees people dealing with sexuality and performance worries, shifting relationship dynamics, and the pressure of adult responsibilities. He often works with men around identity and intimacy and also supports women seeking clearer direction.
Sessions are conversational and focused. Luigi uses practical reflection and noticing between sessions rather than promising quick fixes. He aims to slow things down so people can see what is driving their responses and find more choice in how they act.
His clinical approach draws on client-centred counselling, clinical hypnotherapy, mindfulness strategies and evidence-informed frameworks. These are applied carefully and at a pace that suits each person, with emphasis on emotional regulation and clearer thinking under pressure.
Luigi provides flexible online counselling for people across Australia and practises within Australian social work standards. He is a mandatory reporter under Australian law and notes this service is not for crisis or emergency care. To start, clients use the site matching process to schedule an initial session.
How Luigi’s approaches work in online counselling
Luigi combines client-centred counselling and clinical hypnotherapy with mindfulness strategies. Client-centred counselling focuses on the person’s concerns and aims to make sessions collaborative and respectful; it helps with stress, relationship issues and clarity about choices. Clinical hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to address habits, performance worries and some anxiety-related problems. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right method is part of the process. Luigi will work with each person to test approaches that fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice is made together, and methods can shift as progress is reviewed.
Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into study, work and other commitments because it reduces travel and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people maintain continuity of care when moving within Australia. The therapist aims to apply techniques that translate into everyday situations so changes hold up under real-world pressure.
