About Marjorie

Marjorie Coke is a United Kingdom-based counsellor with 19 years of experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression and difficult life changes. She also supports people facing trauma, grief, relationship strain and worries about self-esteem and identity.

Her work emphasises the person’s own strengths and choices. She aims to empower people without judgement and to work at a pace that feels manageable. Conversations are practical and grounded, focusing on the problems people bring and steps they can try between sessions.

Marjorie draws on several approaches to tailor work to each person. She uses client-centred ways to create a listening space. She may bring in cognitive behavioural ideas to notice and change unhelpful patterns. Trauma-focused and psychodynamic ideas are available when past events need careful attention.

She has supported people through a wide range of concerns, including addiction, sleep problems, anger, parenting stress, chronic illness and issues around adoption or attachment. She also offers help for those coping with natural or human-caused disasters and the distress these events can cause.

If someone is unsure where to start she asks simple questions about what matters most to them. That helps to shape a plan together and set small, achievable goals. The emphasis is on steady progress and on building practical ways to manage day-to-day life.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It gives people space to tell their story and be heard, which can be useful for issues like low self-esteem or relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. It is often used for anxiety, depression and practical problems such as sleep or anger management.

Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the effects of past harm with careful, paced work. It aims to reduce distress linked to traumatic memories and to build coping skills for triggers and flashbacks.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about needs, goals and preferences and suggest ways of working to try. Plans may change as trust grows and as different challenges become clearer.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also be useful for people living outside the local area or for those who find it simpler to schedule appointments around family or work commitments.
