About Caroline

Caroline Tresman NCPS is a counsellor and psychotherapist in the United Kingdom with ten years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and low self-esteem, and difficulties such as panic and social anxiety. Caroline also supports clients dealing with relationship and family issues, grief, addiction and challenges around intimacy and eating or sleeping.

Caroline qualified with an MSc in counselling from Keele University in 2020 and uses a person-centred, integrative style. She has practised therapeutic methods since 2015 and combines gentle, practical tools with conversation-based therapy. Her approach aims to help people notice what keeps difficult feelings going and to try different ways of responding.

She uses Emotional Freedom Technique, often called EFT or tapping, and Matrix Reimprinting as part of sessions where these tools suit the work. These techniques are used alongside elements drawn from cognitive behavioural approaches and transactional analysis when helpful for the problem at hand. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical ways to reduce distress over time.

Caroline has worked with a wide range of experiences, including trauma, suicidal feelings, self-harm, and neurodiversity such as autism spectrum presentations. She also takes an interest in how nutrition can affect mental health and is studying that area further.

Her style is straightforward and down-to-earth. People who seek her support often want to talk through painful memories, change unhelpful patterns, or learn quick tools to ease intense feelings. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange an initial session.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Caroline uses a small set of practical techniques alongside talking therapy. Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT tapping, is a brief intervention that uses gentle tapping on points on the body while focusing on a distressing thought to help reduce intensity. It can be useful for sudden surges of anxiety or panic and for managing strong emotional reactions. Matrix Reimprinting works with memories and the images people hold about past events to help change how those memories feel now; it is often used when trauma or painful early memories remain very present. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. Caroline discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and adjusts methods as needed. She will work with clients to test techniques and see what helps most for their particular concerns. The biography notes she has worked both in person and online, but it does not list current formats here. Please confirm the available online session options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow a quicker return to discussion after an intense moment, or offer a shorter check-in when time is limited. It also means a wider range of clients can connect across locations. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt practical tools like tapping and memory-based exercises to video or phone formats, and Caroline tailors the pace to what each client needs.
