Tessa Adri-Soejoko

Tessa Adri-Soejoko is a counsellor who supports people feeling isolated, anxious or drained by life’s pressures. She offers a calm, respectful space to talk through relationship pain, grief, low self-esteem and feelings of emptiness. Her approach aims to help people notice patterns, feel heard and make small, manageable changes.

Tessa draws on a person-centred way of working that places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. She also uses attachment ideas to help understand emotional responses and how relationships shape feelings. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client, whether that means working toward clear goals or allowing time to reflect.

Her style is described as warm and collaborative, with an emphasis on trust, sensitivity and non-judgement. Conversations are paced to suit each person, and the counsellor adapts to individual needs. This can be useful for people dealing with panic, caregiving stress, codependency or commitment concerns.

Tessa has six years of experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English.

People usually start by thinking about what they want from sessions and then exploring that with Tessa. If someone prefers a focused short-term plan or a more open-ended space to reflect, she works alongside them to find an approach that fits.

How attachment and person-centred approaches work online

Tessa uses person-centred (client-centred) methods that focus on the person in the room and what they bring. This approach helps by offering a steady, non-judgemental space where someone can talk through feelings and start to notice what they want to change.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand emotional patterns and relationship responses. That perspective can be helpful for issues such as abandonment fears, intimacy struggles and chronic loneliness because it looks at how early and current relationships shape reactions.

Finding the right approach is treated as a joint process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try ways of working that suit their needs, and adjust the plan as therapy progresses. This collaborative stance means practical changes can be discussed alongside deeper reflection.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people stay consistent with therapy when life circumstances make regular face-to-face meetings difficult.
