About Ewa

Ewa Polit is a BACP-accredited counsellor and psychologist with seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem struggles and relationship concerns, including issues around intimacy and parenting. Sessions are offered in English and Polish, and she accepts international clients.

Her practice is client-centred and goal-oriented. Ewa often works in longer-term therapy lasting six months or more, and combines different approaches to suit the person in front of her. You can expect practical conversations aimed at clearer coping steps, not long theoretical lectures.

Her work draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), among others. She uses these alongside person-centred ways of listening to help people manage symptoms and make change. EMDR is included as one method she may use with trauma-related concerns.

Ewa also offers coaching and mentor coaching alongside psychotherapy, which she has practised for seven years. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Clients typically talk through current problems, learn coping strategies, and practise new ways of communicating or managing emotions. The therapist and client set goals together and review progress as therapy continues.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and can then schedule a first session through the platform.

How Ewa uses specific therapy methods online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that matter to them. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance and decisions about values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) gives practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication, and is often used for emotional regulation and relationship problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that works with distressing memories to reduce their emotional charge; it is commonly used for trauma-related symptoms.

Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and then try methods that fit those aims. You and the therapist review what helps and adjust the plan as therapy proceeds.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, by saving travel time and allowing appointments during a work break or between other commitments. Some methods, such as skills coaching or brief check-ins, may suit shorter sessions, while trauma-focused work like EMDR may follow a longer session structure depending on your needs. Registered or accredited professionals can explain the practical arrangements when you book.
