About Roderic
Roderic McCann is a BACP counsellor with nine years' experience working with adults across the United Kingdom. He combines psychodynamic thinking with cognitive behavioural tools to help people explore underlying patterns while learning practical ways to cope. Sessions are offered in English and run through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Roderic draws on prior corporate leadership experience to relate to workplace stress and life-stage pressures. He focuses on issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and sleep problems, and also addresses concerns around parenting, relationships and self-esteem. He uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques alongside psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences affect present behaviour.
In sessions he balances exploration of past patterns with clear, practical strategies for day-to-day coping. That might include identifying thought patterns, testing new ways of responding, or discussing how early attachments shape current relationships. He aims to help clients build small, manageable changes they can use between meetings.
Roderic lists additional focus areas including abandonment, attachment issues, fatherhood matters, blended family and family problems, hospice and end-of-life counselling, and midlife concerns. He also works with process addictions and problems such as panic attacks and seasonal affective disorder.
Therapy with Roderic uses a subscription model and appointments are scheduled after completing a short matching questionnaire. International clients are not accepted; sessions are provided to people in the UK.

How his approaches work in online sessions
Roderic uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is practical and often involves setting small tasks between sessions to test new skills, which can help with anxiety, panic, depression and sleep issues.He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how earlier relationships and past experiences influence current feelings and reactions. This approach encourages reflective conversation about recurring patterns and how they show up now.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will discuss your goals and preferences, and decide together whether to focus more on CBT techniques, psychodynamic reflection, or a mix of both as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to maintain regular contact and apply strategies between sessions without rearranging large parts of daily life.
