Caroline Tresman, NCPS

Caroline Tresman offers support for stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and relationship and family concerns. She also helps with addictions, grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and career changes. Caroline accepts international clients and conducts sessions online and in person from the United Kingdom.

Caroline is listed with NCPS, and she completed an MSc counselling qualification at Keele University in 2020. She has provided therapeutic work since 2015 and combines talking therapy with practical techniques that clients can use between sessions. She is currently studying how nutrition can affect mental health.

Her style is person-centred and integrative. She listens with warmth and aims to help people feel safe enough to talk about difficult memories. When useful, she draws on Emotional Freedom Technique, often called EFT or Tapping, and Matrix Reimprinting to help address stuck or painful memories.

Caroline may also draw ideas from cognitive behavioural approaches and transactional analysis when these suit a person’s goals. Her work often focuses on practical steps to reduce distress and on helping people develop steadier ways of coping. She has experience supporting people after very painful life events and with self-harming and suicidal feelings.

People who choose Caroline can expect collaborative sessions that move at a pace they can manage. She aims to offer an early first appointment and uses messaging to arrange times that fit both her and the client.

How therapeutic techniques translate to online care

Many of the approaches Caroline uses are practical and work well online. Emotional Freedom Technique, often called EFT or Tapping, involves gentle tapping on specific points while talking through feelings to reduce distress; it can help with anxiety, low mood and trauma-related symptoms. Matrix Reimprinting works with memories by revisiting past images and changing the emotional response, which can reduce the intensity of painful recollections and unhelpful behaviours.

Finding the right blend of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then try approaches that fit each person's needs. Sessions progress at a pace chosen by the client and are adjusted as things change over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering real flexibility. Video is useful when visual contact matters, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, and messaging or chat can suit brief check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping continuity of care.
