About Roisin

Roisin Robinson-Fitzsimmons is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with eight years' experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping and eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar and depression, and those coping with life changes and parenting challenges.

She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, LGBT and gender dysphoria concerns, ADHD, attachment and abandonment issues, and blended family matters. Roisin uses creative and expressive methods alongside evidence-informed techniques to look at what lies beneath patterns of feeling and reacting.

Sessions use practical exercises and talking work to connect thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Roisin draws on approaches informed by cognitive behavioural and dialectical behaviour ideas to build everyday tools for managing stress and strong emotions. She adapts activities to each person’s pace and preferences.

Her practice includes work on communication problems, caregiver stress, body image and forgiveness. She also addresses the aftermath of domestic violence, divorce and separation, and feelings of emptiness or dependency that can follow relational rupture.

Roisin’s style blends creative expression with structured techniques. Clients can expect straightforward strategies for calming, problem solving and reducing reactive patterns, plus room to reflect on deeper attachment wounds. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. The site subscription model is used for sessions and can be cancelled at any time.

How Roisin uses structured and creative methods online

Roisin combines creative and expressive approaches with techniques informed by cognitive behavioural ideas and dialectical behaviour concepts. Creative approaches let people use art, play or movement to show feelings that are hard to put into words and can be useful when anger is linked to early attachment or trauma. Cognitive behavioural methods look at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and offer practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; they help with workplace frustration and recurring angry responses.

Dialectical behaviour informed techniques focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance and clearer communication. These tools are aimed at reducing reactive behaviour in heated moments and improving problem solving in relationships. Choosing which mix to use is a collaborative process - the therapist will work with the client to find what fits their needs, goals and preferences and adjust as work progresses.

Practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments around work or family commitments, shorter check-ins when time is tight, and options that avoid travel. The biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online work helps keep momentum between sessions while using exercises and skills in day-to-day life.
