About Marjorie
Marjorie Coke is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 19 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She also supports those coping with trauma, abuse, grief and complex life changes.
Marjorie takes a respectful, client-led approach. She believes people are the experts on their own lives and aims to help them find their resilience. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and honest conversation rather than jargon or heavy theory.
Her background includes long-term work with trauma, intimate partner violence and child sexual abuse, and she offers help for people dealing with suicidal thoughts and bereavement after suicide. She also supports those living with chronic illness, cancer, caregiving strain and other ongoing health challenges.
Marjorie draws on a mix of talking approaches. She uses client-centred work to prioritise each person’s goals, cognitive behavioural methods to address unhelpful thinking and mindfulness techniques to build calm and focus. She also uses psychodynamic ideas and trauma-focused work when helpful.
In sessions she aims to reduce shame and blame and to help people build practical coping tools. She encourages small, manageable changes and works at a pace that suits each person. If you are thinking about therapy, she asks you to complete the site’s brief matching questionnaire to get started.

How Marjorie’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s needs and goals first. In practice this means the counsellor follows what matters most to the client, asks open questions and helps people set priorities for change. This approach suits a wide range of concerns, from anxiety to relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to test unhelpful thinking and build new habits. People often use CBT techniques for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.
Mindfulness Therapy introduces short exercises that encourage present-moment noticing and calmer responding. These practices can help with rumination, stress and emotional regulation over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and decide together which methods fit best with the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process can change as therapy progresses.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins on busy days. Some people prefer shorter phone check-ins when time or bandwidth is limited, while others choose longer video sessions for fuller conversation.
