Mareike Coakley , BACP

Mareike Coakley is a UK-based integrative therapist who tailors her work to each person's needs, combining techniques from person-centred therapy, Transactional Analysis and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). She places the therapeutic relationship at the centre of the process and welcomes all parts of a person - including those that feel angry, ashamed or lost - as important material to explore.

With a background in education and experience supporting children, young people and adults, Mareike is committed to helping people reconnect with their authentic selves as they navigate challenging moments. Her style emphasises calm, thoughtful presence and practical exploration so clients can pause, reflect and make sense of what is happening in their lives.

People have sought Mareike's support for a wide range of concerns, including grief, identity difficulties, stressful situations, relationship rupture, anxiety, suicidal feelings and coping with a new diagnosis. She approaches these presentations with curiosity and a collaborative stance, working with clients to understand patterns and find ways forward.

Mareike is a Registered Member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and follows its Ethical Framework. She is also registered with the Information Commissioner's Office and notes her commitment to handling client information responsibly.
