Background and approach
He often works with men facing pressure around identity and responsibility, and with women seeking steadier connection and direction. Luigi uses client-centred methods alongside solutions-focused techniques and motivational interviewing. Sessions involve active reflection and simple practices to use between meetings.
The emphasis is on regulation, clarity and practical steps rather than quick fixes. He also supports people managing attachment issues, avoidant personality patterns, body image concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and co-morbid conditions. Luigi has experience addressing kink and alternative sex culture topics, communication and commitment issues, addictions, and family-related strain.
Luigi offers online sessions across Australia by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. He works within professional and ethical standards as an AASW social worker and follows mandatory reporting requirements under Australian law. If you want steady, grounded support, he aims to help you find clearer direction and workable steps forward.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and working at the client's pace. It helps people feel heard and guides them to discover their own solutions for relationship, intimacy and identity concerns.Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. It can help with anxiety, stress and chronic pain by teaching small, repeatable skills to use in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luigi will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and adapt techniques as progress is made. The process is pragmatic and client-led, with options tested and revised together.
Online therapy offers flexibility across formats like video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited; live chat and messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep working on issues between sessions.
