About Luigi
Luigi Romanelli is an AASW social worker in Australia with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and those questioning sexuality and identity. He offers sessions locally and online across Australia.
People come to him when patterns feel stuck or confidence has taken a hit. He sees issues such as sexual performance concerns, relationship dynamics that affect daily life, and the pressure many men feel around identity and responsibility. He also supports women wanting steadier connection and clearer direction.
His style is practical and collaborative. Sessions are conversational and focused, with active reflection and noticing between meetings. He helps people slow down to see what is driving their responses and to regain a workable sense of choice.
Luigi integrates client-centred counselling, clinical hypnotherapy, and mindfulness strategies with solution-focused elements. He applies these approaches carefully and at the client's pace, emphasising regulation, clarity, and changes that hold up under real-world pressure.
He works with a wide range of related concerns including attachment issues, avoidant personality patterns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication and control issues, divorce and separation, substance use, eating issues, emptiness, and family problems. His practice notes that work is not about quick fixes but steady change.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Luigi uses client-centred counselling to focus conversations on what matters to the client, offering a space to describe experiences and priorities while the therapist listens and reflects. This approach helps clarify values, relationship needs and areas where change would feel meaningful.He also draws on clinical hypnotherapy to address patterns such as anxiety, performance issues and behavioural habits. In this context hypnotherapy involves guided attention and focused suggestions to support regulation and new ways of responding.
Mindfulness strategies are used to build awareness of bodily sensations and thoughts, helping people notice reactions before they escalate and practise calmer responses in everyday situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luigi will discuss options and help decide which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That collaborative planning continues as needs change and new priorities emerge.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting counselling into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make shorter check-ins easier and allow people to access his practice from different parts of Australia. Confirm current session options before booking to learn about exact formats and how they might fit your routine.
