About Jeanine
Jeanine Fox-Rioche is a counsellor with 25 years of experience helping people through difficult life moments. She holds BACP accreditation and works from a person-centred perspective that values each person’s story. Jeanine listens with kindness and aims to make the first sessions straightforward and approachable.
Her work covers a wide range of concerns including relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and parenting stress. She also supports people dealing with attachment issues, chronic illness, body image worries and the fallout from major life changes.
Background and approach
Phobias are listed among the areas she addresses when they form part of a person’s wider difficulties. Jeanine creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak about fears, painful memories and day-to-day struggles. She uses reflections and gentle observations to help people see patterns and new options.
Sessions aim to build practical coping skills, confidence and clearer choices. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and mindfulness alongside solution-focused work. That mix helps with emotion regulation, relationship concerns and taking small steps towards change.
Jeanine places emphasis on working together to find what helps for each person. People can expect warm, steady support and straightforward feedback. If scheduling is difficult she asks people to mention their preferred times and will try to accommodate them.
The aim is to help people move from surviving to feeling more able to live the life they want.
How Jeanine’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can support people struggling with anxiety, avoidance or overwhelming feelings by teaching practical steps to live more fully. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and empathy so a person feels understood; this helps people build self-worth and find their own answers. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotions in relationships and personal patterns, helping people identify and shift the ways they respond to strong feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeanine will talk with each person about needs, goals and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s situation and adjust the plan if something is not helping.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone work can be simpler when internet is limited, and messaging or live chat suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs and make regular contact easier to maintain.
