About Jeanine

Jeanine Fox-Rioche is a counsellor and a member of the BACP with 25 years' experience. She works with relationship issues, family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting, self-esteem, stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and related areas. Sessions are offered in English and she works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Her approach is person-centred and practical. She listens, reflects and helps people to name feelings and think through options. She helps clients build skills to manage reactions, reduce stress and cope with life changes.

Jeanine also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness techniques to support coping and emotional regulation. She uses Emotionally-Focused ideas when relationship or intimacy matters come up, and she applies solution-focused strategies to set small, achievable goals.

She works with a wide range of concerns including abandonment, attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, body image, cancer-related concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness, codependency, commitment and control issues, dissociation and ageing-related topics.

Sessions aim to help clients reflect on past events, consider realistic choices and develop practical skills. The emphasis is on steady steps and clear options rather than quick fixes. Jeanine encourages people to try things between sessions and to review what helps and what does not.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and choosing values-based actions. It can help when anxiety, avoidance or low mood get in the way of everyday life. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflection. It helps people to clarify feelings and make their own decisions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape close relationships and can be useful for intimacy and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeanine will discuss different methods and agree a way forward with each person. She aims to match techniques to the client's goals and preferences, and to adjust as work progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into everyday life, for example by saving travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a lunch break. They can also suit quieter surroundings or times when being on camera is not wanted. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online work that focuses on practical coping, emotional regulation and relationship matters.
