He has a strong commitment to helping men lead fulfilling and meaningful lives in the face of life's endless challenges. He appreciates the transformative power of meaningful human connection and approaches his work with a grounded, warm, and authentic style that empowers boys & men to navigate life's hurdles, discover their inner resilience, and find purpose. Luca supports clients in creating positive changes in their lives by helping them deal effectively with challenging situations outside their control, with a focus on improving the aspects within their control.

Luca believes in the resilience and strength of the human spirit and that meaning in life can always be found, regardless of the circumstances. By identifying and embracing personal values and aligning them with actions, every act, no matter how small, becomes filled with purpose and significance.

In his spare time, Luca enjoys staying physically active through soccer, the gym, and spending time in nature. Luca also cherishes quality time spent with family and friends, recognising the importance of nurturing relationships and fostering meaningful connections.
