About Roisin
Counsellor (BACP), 8 years' experience. Roisin Robinson-Fitzsimmons supports people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns, relationship issues, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, bipolar, depression, ADHD and coping with life changes. She draws on play-based and creative approaches alongside cognitive and dialectical strategies to help people find practical steps forward.
Roisin works with children, young people and parents and carers. Sessions are adapted to each person’s pace and needs. She uses creative activities to help children express feelings and cognitive and emotion skills to help older clients manage symptoms and behaviour.
Her approach mixes expressive methods with CBT-informed and DBT-informed techniques. That means combining activities that open up feelings with strategies for managing thoughts, emotions and reactions. The aim is to identify patterns and build practical tools that are usable between sessions.
She pays particular attention to attachment, abandonment and family dynamics. This includes supporting people affected by domestic violence, separation, blended family stress and caregiver strain. Work can include exploring family communication and boundaries, and addressing shame, emptiness or body image concerns.
Roisin also supports those navigating gender dysphoria and LGBT-related issues. She can help with issues linked to autism and Asperger syndrome, avoidant and dependent personality traits, and communication problems. Sessions are offered in English and accept international clients.
Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, follow the online pathway to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online work
Roisin combines play-based and creative methods with CBT-informed and DBT-informed techniques. Play-based and expressive activities give children ways to show feelings that are hard to name, and can make it easier to explore difficult experiences without relying only on words. CBT-informed techniques look at thoughts and behaviours and teach practical skills for reducing anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns. DBT-informed strategies focus on emotion regulation and tolerating distress, useful for strong emotions and relationship tensions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will discuss what feels helpful and adapt methods to the person’s goals, pace and preferences. Decisions about techniques are collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.
The biography does not state which session formats are used for online work, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they fit more easily into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Online sessions can also make it possible to continue work across locations when someone is travelling or living outside the UK. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format will best match a client’s needs during the initial scheduling process.
