About Tessa
Tessa Adri-Soejoko is a counsellor who helps people tackle parenting stress, anxiety and the everyday pressures of family life. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence for parents who want clearer routines, steadier emotions, or support after big changes. She uses a warm, collaborative style.
Conversations focus on what feels difficult now and practical ways to change it. Sessions often include looking at attachment patterns - how past relationships shape current reactions - and using that understanding to try new ways of relating.
Background and approach
Her approach is client-centred, which means the conversation follows the person in front of her. This gives space to name what matters most and to set goals that feel realistic. Tessa aims to adapt sessions to each person’s needs rather than applying a fixed plan.
Over six years she has worked with people experiencing grief, low mood, panic and relationship rupture. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, codependency, feelings of emptiness and challenges with commitment or intimacy. Her experience includes helping people manage the fallout of separation and domestic violence.
Tessa is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises from the United Kingdom and works in English. For people looking for flexible online options she offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.

Approaches Tessa lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online therapy using attachment and person-centred approaches
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape emotional patterns. It helps people understand responses to stress, separation and parenting challenges and offers ways to try different responses in current relationships.Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. Sessions follow what the client brings, with the counsellor offering empathy and reflection to help people clarify their priorities and decide on practical next steps.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tessa will work with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. Plans are reviewed as work progresses so the focus can change if needed.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow visual connection for relational work, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat suit shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around family life and busy routines while keeping focus on progress and practical solutions.
