Book with RoisinAbout Roisin
Roisin Robinson-Fitzsimmons is a counsellor with eight years of experience helping people through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship problems and parenting strains. She also supports people facing trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges linked to ADHD and bipolar mood differences. Roisin works with LGBT clients and those dealing with gender dysphoria among other identity-related concerns.
She uses creative and expressive ways to encourage people to name what feels overwhelming.
Background and approach
Sessions often include playful or imaginative exercises when helpful, plus practical techniques drawn from cognitive-behavioural approaches and dialectical-behaviour ideas. Roisin adapts each session to the person’s pace and needs. Her approach is collaborative and straightforward.
She helps people connect feelings and behaviours, and build tools they can use between sessions. The tone is warm and compassionate, with an emphasis on safety and steady progress. Roisin has training as a Certified Play Therapist and holds BACP registration, which means she is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She has worked across a range of family and individual concerns over her career. People often come to her when life feels stuck after loss, separation or big changes. She focuses on practical next steps alongside emotional understanding.
If you are unsure whether this is the right fit, it can help to ask a few questions or try an initial meeting to see how the working style feels.

How Roisin’s approaches translate to online counselling
Roisin draws on creative and expressive methods alongside techniques from cognitive-behavioural therapy and dialectical-behaviour approaches. Creative and expressive work uses play, drawing or storytelling to help people name feelings and make sense of difficult experiences; it can be useful for emotional expression and attachment-related issues. Cognitive-behavioural techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Dialectical-behaviour ideas provide skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication in relationships.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Roisin discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods as understanding grows. Together they decide which techniques feel most helpful and how to pace changes over time.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow creative exercises to be adapted for a digital setting and provide continuity when life gets in the way of in-person meetings. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists generally work with clients to choose practical arrangements that suit their everyday routines.
