About Tessa
Tessa Adri-Soejoko welcomes parents and individuals concerned about family and parenting issues who want practical emotional support. She writes plainly and offers a calm, steady presence for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem or life changes. Her first aim is to create a space where clients feel heard and treated with respect and compassion.
She uses a warm, collaborative approach. Sessions focus on building trust and looking at how attachment and early relationships shape emotional patterns today. That helps when people want to understand recurring problems like codependency, commitment fears, avoidance, or repeated relationship ruptures.
Tessa follows a person-centred way of working that keeps the client’s experience at the heart of therapy. Conversations are guided by the client’s priorities, whether that is setting small goals, learning to manage panic and anxiety, or simply making sense of loss and grief.
She also brings attention to practical stresses such as caregiver strain, parenting pressures, and compassion fatigue. Therapy may involve reflecting on past hurts, practising new responses, and building steadier emotional routines.
Tessa is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has six years of practice experience in the United Kingdom and works in English. To begin, clients are invited to make initial contact and complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling sessions.
How attachment and person-centred work translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape emotional reactions today. It helps people understand patterns such as avoidance, fear of abandonment or difficulty with intimacy by exploring emotional responses and rebuilding safer ways of connecting.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and priorities. The therapist offers empathic listening and reflection, helping clients name feelings and decide on steps that feel manageable for them. This approach suits people wanting a steady, respectful space to talk things through.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try ways of working that match those aims. Tessa uses attachment ideas and person-centred listening to shape sessions collaboratively rather than following a fixed script.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, such as saving travel time, fitting a short check-in during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for a session. These practical benefits help people maintain regular meetings and apply what they’re learning between sessions.
