About Marjorie
Marjorie Coke is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 19 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. Marjorie also provides support for trauma, abuse, grief and challenges connected to loss.
She believes people know their own stories and brings a respectful, non-judgemental stance to each session. Her work focuses on helping people find practical ways to cope, regain confidence and make steady changes.
Background and approach
Conversations are paced to the person’s needs and aim to build on existing strengths. Marjorie uses a mix of approaches depending on what a person needs in the moment. She draws on client-centred ideas to keep the person’s priorities central.
Cognitive behavioural tools are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new coping strategies. Mindfulness techniques appear in sessions to help with stress, sleep and emotional regulation. Trauma-focused and psychodynamic ideas are available for those wanting to look deeper into past events and patterns.
The aim is always practical - to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. She works with a broad range of concerns including relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, addiction and compassion fatigue. Marjorie also supports people dealing with chronic illness, bereavement, adoption or attachment-related worries.
Her style is steady, patient and focused on what helps each person move forward.

How Marjorie works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour. It works well for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems because it uses clear steps and exercises that can be practised between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the first conversations. The counsellor will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the person’s goals, preferences and the issues they bring. That might mean trying a few ideas and adjusting as the work develops.
If you are thinking about online sessions, check which formats the counsellor currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets between meetings to support day-to-day coping.
