About Tessa

Tessa Green is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, including panic disorder and panic attacks. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can talk about what feels overwhelming. Tessa uses simple, direct listening so people can start to make sense of their thoughts and feelings.

She works in a way that responds to each person rather than following one fixed method. That means sessions are shaped around what a person needs in the moment. Tessa draws on client-centred ideas to make sure people feel heard and respected during their time together.

Common concerns she helps with include depression, relationship strain, life changes and coping with loss. She also addresses trauma, self-harm thoughts, low self-esteem and workplace stress. Tessa pays attention to how attachment, communication problems and feelings of emptiness or guilt can affect daily life.

Tessa is a BACP practitioner with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She speaks English and works with adults who want help with emotional problems and practical coping strategies. Her aim is to help people find clearer choices and small steps that feel manageable.

If someone is unsure about starting, she encourages a simple first step of talking through what feels most pressing. From there she and the client decide how to proceed, aiming for changes that fit the person’s life and goals.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to and understood. It involves the counsellor reflecting what is said, asking gentle questions and helping a person find their own solutions. This approach can help with anxiety, panic attacks and feeling stuck by making space to name feelings and responses.

The aim is collaboration. The therapist will check in about which ways of working feel most helpful and adjust things as the relationship develops. Together they decide what to try, which practical steps to take, and how progress will be reviewed.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy day and reducing travel time. Online work can make it simpler to keep regular appointments around work or family commitments and to try a shorter check-in when needed. Confirm the specific session options available before booking so arrangements match your needs, as formats are not listed in the biography. Registered or accredited professionals can help tailor the session length and style to what works best for you.
