Caroline Tresman, NCPS

Caroline Tresman is an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist who blends gentle, practical techniques with a warm, person-centred way of working. She holds an MSc and qualified as a counsellor at Keele University in 2020, and she also holds NCPS registration, which indicates professional standing in counselling and psychotherapy. Caroline has used EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique or Tapping - and Matrix Reimprinting in therapeutic work since 2015, offering these approaches both in person and online to help people shift distressing memories and unhelpful patterns.

Her practice is integrative, rooted in person-centred values, and when appropriate she draws on cognitive behavioural tools and Transactional Analysis to support clearer thinking and healthier relationship patterns. Caroline has supported clients with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family issues, low self-esteem, addictions, grief, bipolar challenges, sleeping and eating difficulties, and intimate or identity-related struggles. She also has experience working with people on the autism spectrum and with complex life events such as suicidal feelings or deeply entrenched trauma.

Currently studying aspects of nutrition and its impact on mental health, Caroline aims to empower clients to feel safer in themselves and to work through difficult experiences at a pace that suits them. She seeks to offer a first session within 36 hours of initial contact, and she is open to working with international clients from her base in the United Kingdom.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online work

Caroline commonly uses Emotional Freedom Technique - often called EFT or Tapping - which involves gentle tapping on acupressure points while focusing on specific emotions or memories to reduce distress and restore calm. She also works with Matrix Reimprinting, a method that revisits past memories to help people change how they relate to those experiences and reduce the power of unhelpful patterns. When helpful, she incorporates cognitive behavioural strategies to explore thinking patterns and behavioural experiments that support change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Caroline treats this as a collaborative process. She will discuss options with each client, consider personal goals and preferences, and adapt techniques so they fit the client’s needs and comfort level.

Online therapy with Caroline is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, or geographic constraints, and allow registered professionals and therapists to deliver consistent, ongoing support even when in-person meetings are not possible.
