About Caroline

Caroline Tresman is a counsellor and psychotherapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and relationship difficulties. She works with issues such as low self-esteem, anger, addictions, grief and challenges tied to identity or sexuality. Caroline also supports people coping with life changes and helps those affected by natural or human-caused disaster recover a sense of steadiness.

She trained at Keele University and gained an MSc in counselling and psychotherapy. Caroline has been using emotional freedom technique (EFT or tapping) and Matrix Reimprinting since 2015, working with clients both in person and online. She also draws on elements of cognitive behavioural therapy and Transactional Analysis when they suit a person’s needs.

Caroline’s style is person-centred and gentle. She focuses on creating a sense of safety so people can talk through painful memories and feel less overwhelmed. She describes therapeutic work as a collaborative process and aims to help people notice small practical changes.

Over ten years of therapeutic work has included supporting people with trauma, self-harm, panic and social anxiety, autistic traits, and difficult family or childhood experiences. Carolines interest in nutrition and mental health informs how she looks at wellbeing alongside emotional work.

She uses brief, accessible tools such as EFT to reduce intensity and Matrix Reimprinting to help shift how past events are experienced. Caroline encourages clear, manageable steps and offers follow-up conversations to check progress and adapt the approach as needed.

How therapeutic techniques work online

Caroline uses accessible, practical approaches that many people find helpful. Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT, often called tapping, is a brief tool that combines gentle tapping with talking to help lower intense feelings and make distressing symptoms easier to manage. Matrix Reimprinting works with memories and images from the past to change how those moments are felt now, which can reduce their hold on day-to-day life.

She also borrows from cognitive behavioural therapy in places, using simple ways to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work; Caroline aims to collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs, goals and preferences as therapy unfolds.

If you are considering online work, check the current session options before booking since formats can vary. Many people find online conversations easier to fit into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins on a work break, or remove travel time. Online sessions can make it simpler to continue regular work while using the same therapeutic tools Caroline uses in face-to-face work.
