Roderic McCann, BACP

Roderic McCann is a BACP-registered counsellor who combines psychodynamic insight with cognitive-behavioural tools to help adults understand the origins of their difficulties while developing practical strategies for change. With nine years of counselling experience and more than 20 years of prior corporate leadership before retraining, he brings a grounded and relatable perspective to issues that span personal and professional life. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK.

He works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, parenting and fatherhood issues, addictions and process-related problems, sleep difficulties, anger, and coping with life changes. He also supports people facing midlife challenges, attachment and abandonment issues, blended family dynamics, and end-of-life and hospice related matters. His approach is compassionate yet structured - he listens closely, helps make sense of recurring patterns, and collaborates with clients to build tailored coping skills and practical steps forward.

Clients can expect flexible scheduling to fit busy lives, honest collaborative conversations that respect individual values, and a focus on strengthening resilience for everyday life. Roderic offers online therapy to people located in the United Kingdom and does not currently accept international clients.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with practical skills and coping strategies. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, sleep difficulties, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences and attachment patterns influence present feelings and relationships; it helps uncover recurring themes beneath current difficulties and supports longer-term emotional insight and change.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative part of therapy. Roderic works together with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and will suggest ways of working that suit the individual. He balances insight-oriented work with actionable techniques so that therapy remains relevant and practical for everyday life.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work and family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow continuity of care even when routines change. Licensed professionals can adapt therapeutic methods to remote formats so clients can progress toward their goals from locations across the United Kingdom.
