Luigi Romanelli

Luigi Romanelli is an AASW social worker based in Launceston, Tasmania, with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and those asking questions about life purpose. His practice includes relationship counselling and sex therapy alongside general counselling and clinical hypnotherapy.

People come to him when patterns feel stuck or confidence has been affected. He regularly sees clients troubled by sexuality, performance, relationship dynamics and the strain these cause in daily life. He also works with men dealing with pressure around identity and responsibility, and with women seeking steadier connection and clearer direction.

Luigi uses a practical, collaborative way of working. Sessions are conversational and focused. He helps clients slow things down, notice what drives their responses and build more choice into their actions.

His approach draws on client-centred counselling, clinical hypnotherapy and mindfulness-based strategies, with motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques when helpful. Work often includes active reflection and noticing between sessions rather than quick fixes.

He offers flexible online counselling for clients across Australia and practises within professional and ethical standards as an Australian social worker. This service is not a crisis or emergency response. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Luigi commonly uses client-centred counselling and clinical hypnotherapy alongside mindfulness-based strategies. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening, clarifying what matters and helping clients find their own solutions; it suits issues like relationship strain, communication problems and uncertainty about next steps. Clinical hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to work with habits, performance worries and some kinds of anxiety. Mindfulness-based strategies teach attention and regulation skills useful for stress, chronic pain and emotional reactivity.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. He will discuss your concerns, goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try first. That collaborative review happens openly and can be adjusted as your needs change.

The profile states he offers flexible online counselling for clients across Australia. Please confirm the specific session formats available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be hard to schedule. Different approaches suit different practical needs, and he will help match the method and timing to your everyday commitments.
