About Ewa
Ewa Polit is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, depression and relationship issues. She supports clients dealing with low self-esteem, grief, anger, work-related strain and identity concerns, including LGBT matters. She speaks English and Polish and has seven years of experience in coaching and psychotherapy.
Her style is client-centred and goal-oriented. Sessions often focus on practical steps people can use between meetings. Ewa describes her work as integrative, bringing together different methods to suit each person’s needs rather than following a single approach.
Background and approach
She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes roles as a psychotherapist, psychotraumatologist and psychologist, and she also works as a mentor coach and life coach. She continues professional development through courses related to trauma and psychotherapy.
In practice she commonly works in longer-term therapy, often over six months, while also using shorter-term techniques where helpful. Typical areas covered include trauma, PTSD, dissociation, mood and personality difficulties, compulsive behaviours and communication problems. In sessions she aims for honesty, respect and a collaborative relationship.
Ewa tailors therapy to each person, combining elements such as EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and client-centred methods as appropriate. She emphasises helping people reconnect with their own resources and find workable next steps.

How chosen approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move towards what matters to them. It often supports those facing anxiety, low mood or big life changes by teaching simple exercises to use day to day.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps people find their own solutions to issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns and decision making.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and the issues at hand to decide what methods to try. That conversation is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings are arranged. Many people find online therapy helps fit regular sessions into a busy week, saves travel time and makes it easier to keep continuity when circumstances change. If quieter surroundings or a shorter check-in suit you better, mention this when arranging sessions so practical arrangements can be tailored to daily life.
