About Marjorie

Marjorie Coke works with people on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and relationship and intimacy-related issues. She uses client-centred and trauma-informed ways of working and brings 19 years of professional experience. Marjorie is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She treats each conversation as an opportunity to understand what is most difficult right now. Sessions look at feelings, thoughts and patterns that keep problems repeating. Practical strategies from cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness are used alongside exploration of past experiences when that helps.

Marjorie also supports people dealing with parenting strain, sleep problems, anger, bipolar-related distress and the longer-term effects of abuse. She has experience with abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment difficulties, blended family concerns and body image. Chronic illness, caregiving stress and cancer-related worries are within her remit too.

She offers trauma-focused work that aims to reduce the power of distressing memories and their effects on daily life. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice repeated relational patterns and how early relationships shape current feelings. Marjorie balances these approaches with present-focused techniques that help people manage mood and behaviour.

Marjorie works in English and accepts international clients. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people choose the Talk to a counsellor online button, fill a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work for online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and priorities, with the counsellor following what matters most to the client and encouraging personal choice. It helps when someone needs to be heard and make decisions about change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Trauma-Focused Therapy works with the effects of traumatic events and uses specialised techniques to reduce distress linked to past harm.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the first sessions. The counsellor and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. That collaborative discussion can include mixing present-focused tools with deeper exploration when needed.

The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and treatment appointments. They can also allow shorter check-ins or simpler phone-only contacts when video is not suitable. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods such as CBT exercises and mindfulness practices to work over distance, helping people apply techniques in day-to-day life.
