About Marjorie

Marjorie Coke is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 19 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem, and supports those dealing with trauma, grief and relationship concerns. Her practice also addresses addiction, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger and ADHD-related difficulties.

Her background includes long-term work with survivors of abuse and people affected by intimate partner violence. She supports those bereaved by suicide and people managing the ongoing effects of childhood sexual abuse. Marjorie also lists experience with chronic illness, caregiver stress and the challenges of adoption and foster care.

In sessions she treats the person as the expert on their life and focuses on practical steps. She draws on client-centred ways of working to listen and reflect, and uses cognitive behavioural techniques to look at thinking patterns and behaviour. Mindfulness tools are offered to help with moments of overwhelm and grounding.

Marjorie also draws on psychodynamic and trauma-focused ideas to notice longer standing patterns that may affect current choices. She aims to help people recognise options and make manageable changes, one step at a time. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.

She works in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people use the online matching questionnaire and then book an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Marjorie uses client-centred methods that focus on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. This approach helps people clarify priorities and make decisions about next steps when life feels uncertain.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and to develop practical strategies for change. Mindfulness techniques are offered to build attention skills and reduce the intensity of overwhelming feelings in the moment.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Marjorie will discuss goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that suit the person’s needs. Adjustments are made as progress and comfort levels become clearer.

The original profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain a consistent schedule and bring therapy into everyday life without assuming a particular format.
