Marjorie Coke, BACP

Marjorie Coke is a UK-licensed therapist with 19 years of professional experience supporting people through complex and often painful life challenges. She works with individuals facing stress, anxiety and depression, along with low self-esteem and confidence. Marjorie has developed specific expertise in working with experiences of intimate partner violence, domestic and physical abuse, psychological and emotional abuse, and child sexual abuse, including the long-term effects these traumas can produce.

She also offers focused support for grief and loss, including suicidal ideation and the particular needs of people bereaved by suicide. Marjorie embraces a trauma-informed perspective and honours each person as the expert of their own story, centering clients' autonomy while helping them access their resilience. She encourages the courage it takes to pursue a more fulfilling life and approaches every interaction without judgement.

Marjorie holds BACP credentials - BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings nearly two decades of practice to her work. Her approach combines professional experience with warm, empowering support designed to help people navigate change, heal from past harm, and build practical ways to cope and move forward.

Approaches for online healing and trauma work

Marjorie integrates client-centered work, trauma-focused methods, and cognitive behavioral techniques to support people engaging in online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where the person's own goals and experience guide the work - it helps with building self-understanding, confidence, and personal agency. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to the effects of past harm and abuse, using structured approaches to process difficult memories and reduce their ongoing impact on daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, offering practical skills to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marjorie collaborates with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting plans as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Marjorie is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier for people to access registered professionals from their own location, balance therapy with daily responsibilities, and find a pace and mode of communication that suit them.
