About Roisin

Roisin Robinson-Fitzsimmons is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief and relationship difficulties. She also helps with parenting strains, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges linked to trauma and attachment. Roisin has eight years of experience and works with issues such as low self-esteem, anger, bipolar and depression, and the practical strains of life change.

She uses a mix of creative and expressive methods alongside techniques informed by cognitive behavioural approaches. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns, understand underlying feelings, and build small practical tools to manage difficult moments. Roisin adapts each session to the individual’s pace and needs, so work can be playful, conversational or task-focused as needed.

Her practice places emphasis on building trusting relationships and on steady progress rather than quick fixes. She offers a calm, compassionate space where people can reflect and try new ways of coping. This includes support around attachment, abandonment and family problems, and issues linked to gender dysphoria and LGBT concerns.

Roisin has particular experience with autism and Asperger syndrome, avoidant and dependent personality traits, blended family and caregiving stress. She also assists with communication problems, forgiveness, and recovery from domestic violence and separation.

People who choose to work with Roisin usually begin with practical steps and everyday strategies. Over time the work may move into deeper reflection on past experiences and how they shape current relationships.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Roisin draws on creative and expressive methods that let people use art, play or storytelling to understand feelings and try new responses. These approaches can be helpful when words feel limiting or when a more active, hands-on way of working makes it easier to access difficult memories and emotions.

She also uses techniques informed by cognitive behavioural ideas, which focus on noticing unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and testing small changes. These techniques tend to suit anxiety, panic, low mood and practical coping needs because they offer straightforward tools to use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will work with each person to decide whether more creative work or cognitive-style tasks best match their goals and preferences. That decision can change as therapy progresses and new needs appear.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so please confirm the exact online 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 a full session is not needed. It can also let people try different ways of working from their usual routine while keeping the focus on steady practical progress.
