About Jeanine
Jeanine Fox-Rioche is a BACP counsellor with 25 years of experience. She draws on long experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief and traumatic experiences. Her approach is warm and direct, and she aims to help clients make practical changes that fit their lives.
She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about pain, addictions, anger or relationship worries. She listens for patterns in thinking and feeling, and gently reflects those back so clients can see options.
Background and approach
The work is conversational and focused on what matters most to the person in the room. Jeanine uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She helps clients develop skills to manage reactions, build confidence and respond more calmly under pressure.
She also supports people working through loss, life changes and ongoing health or caregiving challenges. Sessions aim to be practical and grounded. Jeanine offers observations, questions and short exercises that people can try between meetings.
The goal is clearer thinking, steadier mood and more choice in daily life. She has worked across family settings, with people facing legal processes, and with those recovering from trauma and abuse. Her style is patient and encouraging, helping clients find motivation and small steps forward.
People who come to Jeanine often want steady support and straightforward tools. She works collaboratively, helping each person decide which steps feel right for them.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose small actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and reflecting what the client says so they can find their own answers and build confidence in their choices.Jeanine treats approach choice as a shared decision. She will discuss goals and preferences at the start and tailor sessions over time. That means trying techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together until it fits the client's needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth conversation and exercises, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messages allow short check-ins, homework exchanges and flexible contact between full sessions. Together these options make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around work, family and daily routines.
