About Caroline

Caroline Tresman is an NCPS counsellor and psychotherapist with ten years' experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression and addiction. Caroline also supports people facing relationship and family problems, grief, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and career changes.

She qualified as a counsellor in 2020 at Keele University and has used therapeutic approaches since 2015. Caroline uses Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping) and Matrix Reimprinting in her work. She also draws on person-centred principles, with some cognitive behavioural and transactional analysis ideas when helpful.

Sessions focus on practical ways to change how difficult feelings show up day to day. That can mean learning simple tapping routines, revisiting old memories with Matrix Reimprinting, or trying short behavioural steps from CBT. Conversations aim to be straightforward so people can use what they learn between sessions.

Caroline has supported people with a wide range of experiences, including trauma, panic and social anxiety, addictive behaviours, anger and self-harm. She has worked with clients who identify as autistic or have autistic traits and with issues such as gender dysphoria, body image and family of origin problems.

She is currently studying nutrition and mental health and offers both in-person and online work as part of her practice. Caroline asks new clients to use a short matching questionnaire and to schedule a first session so they can begin a plan together.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Caroline commonly uses Emotional Freedom Technique, often called EFT or Tapping. EFT involves gentle tapping on specific points while focusing on a feeling or memory to reduce its intensity and teach quick self-regulation skills. It can help with sudden anger spikes, anxiety and stress.

She also works with Matrix Reimprinting, a method that revisits past memories and helps people change how they feel about those memories. This approach is used for trauma-related material and for shifting persistent unhelpful thoughts and reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Caroline will discuss options with each person and decide together which techniques suit their goals, needs and preferences. The choice of tools can change as progress is made, and sessions are collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.

The biography notes she offers online work alongside in-person sessions. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into daily life easier by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins or offering quieter surroundings. They can suit people who need to schedule sessions around work, caring duties or other commitments.
