About Roisin

Roisin Mcgrath brings five years of professional counselling experience in the United Kingdom. She works from the belief that each person knows their own story best and already has strengths to draw on. Roisin aims to support and empower people who want change and a more satisfying life.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client leads the goals and the counsellor helps navigate obstacles. Roisin uses straightforward, practical ways of working.

02

How Roisin works

She helps people talk through stress, anxiety and depression, and supports those struggling with self-esteem and motivation. She also works with concerns such as career difficulties, addiction, grief, trauma and relationship strain. Her approach draws on client-centred principles that place the person’s needs at the centre of sessions.

Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviours. Mindfulness techniques are offered to build moment-to-moment coping and reduce overwhelm. Sessions are designed to be down-to-earth and goal-focused when that fits, or more exploratory when people need to understand deeper patterns.

Roisin aims to help people develop practical steps they can use between sessions. The emphasis is on small, manageable changes rather than sudden overhauls. People who prefer a calm, collaborative counsellor may find her style suits them.

She supports parents with parenting strain, people dealing with compassion fatigue, and those facing life transitions or career crossroads. Roisin accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Online support options

How Roisin's approaches work online

Roisin uses client-centred counselling to keep the focus on the person's priorities and pace. That approach emphasises listening, empathy and working from the client's own goals, which helps when sorting out relationship strain, parenting stress, or career worries.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test different behaviours. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and practical problems where changing thoughts and actions brings relief.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Roisin will discuss which methods suit the person's concerns, goals and preferences, and adapt the plan as progress unfolds. The process is collaborative and reviewed over time to keep it relevant.

Online sessions offer flexibility that fits busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues when that helps, phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit those who prefer writing or need more frequent brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
