About Tessa

Tessa Adri-Soejoko works with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship ruptures and grief using a person-centred way of working. She describes her practice as collaborative, and she is a BACP member with six years of professional experience.

Tessa uses attachment ideas to help people understand their emotional responses. In sessions she focuses on what feels difficult now and how past patterns might influence current relationships. Conversations aim to identify core issues and notice patterns of emotional regulation rather than only addressing surface problems.

Her counselling style is client-centred, which means sessions are shaped around the person in front of her and what they want to work on. That often involves reflecting together, setting short-term goals for practical steps, and revisiting deeper concerns when appropriate. The therapist notes a preference for meeting weekly to build continuity.

She also supports people with parenting strain, compassion fatigue and difficulties after separation. Additional areas she lists include abandonment, attachment issues, codependency and panic attacks. These are described as focus areas she can bring into the sessions when relevant.

Tessa works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. People considering working together are invited to complete an initial matching process so they can see whether her style is a good fit before scheduling a first appointment.

How attachment-based and person-centred approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape emotional patterns. Online sessions can explore how those patterns affect current stress, relationships and coping strategies in everyday life.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person and their concerns at the centre of each session. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps the client decide what to focus on next, which can suit conversations about self-esteem, grief or decision making.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree a way of working that suits the client's needs. This is a collaborative process and may change over time as priorities shift.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or travel, and it can allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or audio-only conversations when bandwidth is low. Registered or accredited professionals use these options to make therapy more practical for everyday life.
