About me
Hello - I’m Roisin,
I’m a behaviour specialist, educator, and parent coach with over 25 years of experience across education, social care, and trauma-informed support. My work is grounded in the belief that every child, no matter their history, diagnosis, or behaviour deserves to be understood, not managed.
I’ve supported children with complex needs, emotional dysregulation, neurodivergence (including autism and ADHD), and those excluded from both school and community.
My career has taken me from mainstream classrooms to high-needs support settings, from family homes to safe houses, and into deeply collaborative roles with parents, educators, and allied health professionals.
My qualifications include:
Masters in Education: Wellbeing & Positive Mental Health
Graduate Diploma in Education
Bachelor of Social Science: Psychology & Cultural Studies
Diploma in Arts: Australian Studies
But beyond the credentials, what I bring is calm clarity, strategic thinking, and the ability to hold space for families navigating incredibly hard things.
My work is relational, responsive, and highly personalised. I take on only a small number of clients at a time, so I can offer deep, meaningful support with the consistency and care it truly takes to create change.
And while I bring professional expertise, I also bring lived understanding. I’m a parent myself and I know that even with all the tools, some days are still messy, uncertain, and deeply emotional. I don’t claim to have it all figured out. But I do know how to walk alongside you with integrity, empathy, and a plan that actually works in your real life.
This is not generic behaviour support. This is high-quality, individualised care for families who are ready for something more effective and more human.
“Roisin has incredible knowledge and understanding when it comes to working with children who are struggling. Not just text book knowledge either, real life experiences. She is probably the most patient person I have met and has the biggest heart.”
