About Luigi
Luigi Romanelli is an AASW social worker with 20 years of clinical experience in Launceston, Tasmania. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and concerns tied to sexuality and performance.
People come to him when patterns feel stuck or confidence has slipped. He often supports men dealing with pressure around identity, intimacy and responsibility, and also helps women seeking steadier connection and clearer direction. Sessions are kept conversational and focused on practical steps.
His approach slows things down so clients can notice what drives their responses. He uses client-centred counselling alongside clinical hypnotherapy and mindfulness-based strategies. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas shape how goals and change are worked on.
Work between sessions is encouraged through simple noticing and reflection tasks rather than quick fixes. There is attention to regulation, clearer communication, and changes that hold up under real-world pressure. The emphasis is on collaborative, practical steps clients can try and refine.
Luigi offers flexible online counselling for people across Australia. He practises within professional AASW standards and 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 listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify their thoughts and make their own choices about relationships, identity and behaviour.Clinical hypnotherapy uses guided attention and relaxation to access patterns that can be hard to reach in ordinary conversation. It is used alongside talking work for issues such as performance, confidence and habit change.
Mindfulness strategies teach simple noticing and grounding practices. These techniques aim to reduce reactivity and increase calm when stress, shame or anxiety arise.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will explore goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before, then agree on an approach together. That collaborative process shapes which methods are used and how quickly they are introduced.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as the original biography noted flexible online counselling but did not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or remove travel time. Discuss practical arrangements when you schedule the first appointment so sessions suit everyday commitments.
