Marjorie Coke , BACP

Marjorie Coke is a UK-licensed therapist with 19 years of professional experience who supports people facing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. She works with individuals dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and confidence, and the complex effects of trauma and abuse, including intimate partner violence, domestic violence, physical abuse, psychological and emotional abuse, and child sexual abuse. She also provides specialist support for grief and loss, including suicidal thoughts and people bereaved by suicide.

Marjorie approaches therapy from a trauma-informed perspective and helps clients explore cultural identity and the longer-term impacts of traumatic experiences. Her practice emphasises a belief in each person’s autonomy and capacity for resilience - she views clients as the experts in their own stories and aims to support the process of change with empathy and without judgement. Marjorie lists BACP among her credentials - BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

She offers a compassionate, empowering style of work intended to help people reclaim stability, build coping skills, and move toward a more fulfilling life. Marjorie supports clients through difficult transitions and offers guidance for managing complex emotions, relationships, and life stresses while respecting each person’s pace and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Marjorie integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused approaches into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful, nonjudgemental space where clients explore their own goals and values - it helps with self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns. CBT is action-oriented and helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Trauma-focused therapy addresses the impact of traumatic experiences and supports processing and coping with trauma-related symptoms and long-term effects.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marjorie works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adapts techniques so therapy fits the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Together they decide which combination of approaches is most helpful for the client’s situation.

Online therapy with Marjorie is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals and to continue therapy through life changes and geographical moves.
