About Ewa
Ewa Polit is a BACP counsellor and psychologist with seven years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, parenting concerns and a wide range of life changes.
She describes her work as client-centred and goal-oriented. Sessions often run over a longer term - six months or more - when that fits the person's needs. She also offers coaching alongside psychotherapy and uses practical strategies in sessions rather than abstract theory.
Her approach is integrative. Ewa draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) where appropriate. She combines these with person-centred listening and solution-focused techniques to address emotional regulation and relationship patterns.
People bring a mix of concerns to her work: trauma-related symptoms, mood disorders including bipolar, ADHD, body image and self-esteem problems, communication and commitment issues, caregiver stress, and the effects of domestic violence or separation. She also lists work with LGBT issues, blended family challenges and compassion fatigue.
In sessions she aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try new ways of responding to anger and stress, and build practical skills for everyday life. English and Polish are both offered for therapy. She practises in the United Kingdom and maintains her BACP membership.
How sessions work
Online therapy and the approaches Ewa uses
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, then choose actions that fit their values. It can be useful for chronic anger, anxiety and life changes where old reactions keep getting in the way.Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that aims to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and the reactions they trigger. It is commonly used for trauma, flashbacks and strong emotional responses to past events.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance and clearer communication. These skills often help when anger escalates quickly or when people struggle to manage strong emotions.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That collaborative choice can change as progress is made or new priorities emerge.
If you want online sessions, please confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel, to make shorter check-ins possible, or to reduce the need to travel to appointments. Ewa's approaches translate to online work because they include practical exercises, skills coaching and trauma-informed processing that can be adapted to remote sessions.
