About Roderic

Roderic McCann is a BACP counsellor who offers online therapy across the United Kingdom, Ireland and the EU. He combines psychodynamic insight with cognitive behavioural tools to help people understand where their difficulties come from and build practical ways to cope. His background in corporate leadership shapes a practical, down-to-earth approach that suits people juggling work and life demands.

He focuses on stress, anxiety and workplace pressures, and helps with grief and difficult life transitions. He also supports people dealing with sleep problems, low self-esteem, anger and addictions, including process addictions such as gambling or problematic sexual behaviour. Parenting concerns, fatherhood issues and blended family problems are among his areas of attention.

Sessions aim to balance listening with practical action. Roderic helps people spot repeating patterns and then works with them to try different ways of responding. He offers straightforward coping strategies alongside deeper reflection about past experiences and relationships.

People often find his style compassionate yet structured. His experience in senior corporate roles informs how he talks about workplace stress, burnout and moral injury in clear terms. He aims to support clients to feel more resilient and better able to manage daily pressures.

Roderic has nine years' experience as a counsellor and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He works in English and does not take international clients outside the areas noted above.

How his approaches shape online therapy

Roderic uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to ease symptoms like anxiety, low mood or panic. He also uses psychodynamic work to look at how past relationships and early experiences can influence current feelings and patterns, helping people understand why they react in certain ways.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then try methods that suit their situation. Over time the plan can be adjusted based on what is most helpful for the individual.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that is useful. Roderic aims to help people bring therapeutic work into everyday life so coping strategies and increased insight can be used between sessions.
