About Roisin
Roisin Robinson-Fitzsimmons is a counsellor who focuses on sleep and rest alongside a broad range of emotional concerns. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strain, relationship issues, eating concerns and anger. She also works with people facing trauma, attachment difficulties, ADHD and identity questions including gender dysphoria and LGBT matters.
Roisin uses a mix of creative and expressive methods together with approaches informed by cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns, understand underlying feelings, and build practical coping skills. Work is paced to each person's needs and preferences.
She brings eight years of experience to her practice and holds BACP registration with practice standards set by that body. That background shapes a compassionate, collaborative style focused on steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.
In sessions Roisin makes space for reflection and practical planning. She helps people try new ways of managing sleep, easing anxiety and dealing with loss or family difficulties. People can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation and creative options when talking feels hard.
For parents or carers worried about a child's sleep or emotional wellbeing, she offers ideas that fit family life and routines. For adults she supports building better rest habits alongside emotional coping tools.
Approaches to improving sleep and emotional wellbeing online
Roisin combines creative, expressive work with methods informed by cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy. Creative and expressive approaches use drawing, play or storytelling to help uncover feelings and patterns when words are hard to find; these methods can be useful for exploring bedtime routines, worries and emotional blocks that affect rest. Cognitive behavioural therapy informed techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits that disrupt sleep and mood, and on developing practical routines and strategies to change them. Dialectical behaviour therapy informed ideas emphasise skills such as distress tolerance and emotional regulation, which can help manage nighttime anxiety and reduce reactivity.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Roisin will work with each person to try methods that fit their needs and pace, checking in and adjusting techniques as progress is made. The aim is to build workable tools together rather than to impose a one-size-fits-all plan.
The practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and reduced travel time, so check-ins can slot into shorter breaks or evening routines. If you want to explore online options, confirm the specific session formats available before booking to ensure they match your needs. Registered or accredited professionals can help people carry over strategies into daily life, supporting better sleep and steadier coping across home and family routines.
