About Marjorie

Marjorie Coke is a counsellor who has worked in the United Kingdom for 19 years. She holds BACP registration, and brings long experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps those facing grief, trauma and abuse, and people coping with low self-esteem or confidence.

Her approach places the person at the centre of the work. She treats people as experts in their own lives and focuses on helping them make changes that feel right for them. Sessions aim to be non-judgemental and empowering, with space to talk openly about painful experiences.

Marjorie draws on a mix of practical and reflective methods. She uses client-centred listening alongside cognitive behavioural strategies to help with unhelpful thoughts and day-to-day coping. Mindfulness tools are offered to manage stress and build calm in difficult moments.

For those carrying trauma or complicated loss, she uses trauma-focused and psychodynamic ideas to understand patterns and long-standing effects. This can include looking at past experiences and how they influence present reactions, at a pace the person chooses.

People come to her for many relationship and life concerns including intimacy-related issues, addictions, parenting strain, sleeping problems, anger, ADHD, and coping with major life changes. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment challenges, blended family issues and chronic illness. Marjorie aims to help clients find clearer steps forward and build on their resilience.

Approaches and how they translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, validating and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and build confidence to make changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and introduces practical exercises to change behaviours and mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and increase calm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences and needs and will recommend ways of working that suit them. This decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as the work progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, avoid travel time and use shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to pause and practise techniques between meetings and to work collaboratively on exercises and reflections during sessions.
