essentialism is about finding the general idea of something and is focus on precise  definition so Ti dom work, Descartes is an exemple of philosopher (INTP) quite focus on the essence of things. but essence is also about finding an eternal meaning to something  so Ni can also be a good example (Plato is the perfect exemple of Ni+Ti). heraclitus  is a Ni dom so he want find something eternal, but his empirical way of finding information (Te), show him the necessity of change, and it makes him sad.

"In biology and other natural sciences, essentialism provided the rationale for taxonomy at least until the time of Charles Darwin; the role and importance of essentialism in biology is still a matter of debate. In gender studies the essentialist idea that men and women are fundamentally different continues to be a matter of contention".
