About Luigi
Luigi Romanelli is an AASW social worker with 20 years of clinical experience based in Australia. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and related concerns such as attachment difficulties and body image. He also supports clients exploring sexuality, including BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture.
People come to him when patterns feel stuck, confidence falls away, or stress and relationship dynamics begin to affect everyday life. Sessions are conversational and focused. Luigi uses practical steps and plain language to help people slow things down and notice what is driving their responses.
His approach brings together client-centred counselling, clinical hypnotherapy, mindfulness strategies and solution-focused techniques. He explains options clearly and works at a pace that suits the person. The work often includes noticing habits between sessions and trying small changes that are realistic in daily life.
Luigi has particular experience supporting men dealing with pressure around identity, intimacy and responsibility, and he also works with women seeking steadier connection and clearer direction. He applies motivational interviewing ideas when addressing addictions and behaviour change.
Sessions are offered across Australia and include online counselling. He practices within professional and ethical standards expected of an AASW social worker, and he is a mandatory reporter under Australian law. This service is not a crisis or emergency response.
How his approaches work in online counselling
Client-centred counselling focuses on the person’s own goals and experiences. It involves listening, reflecting and helping people identify what matters to them and what small steps they might try. Clinical hypnotherapy uses focused attention and guided suggestion to help with habit change, anxiety and performance concerns; sessions typically involve relaxed, guided exercises and discussion about what to practise afterwards.Finding the best approach is part of the work. He will talk through different options and together decide what fits the client’s goals, preferences and day-to-day demands. That collaborative process means methods can be adapted as things change.
Luigi offers online counselling across Australia. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a working day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins or longer therapy sessions when needed. He aims to help people build regulation and clarity in everyday settings rather than relying on occasional in-person appointments.
