About Ewa

Ewa Polit works on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem and relationship concerns, among other issues, using a client-centred and goal-oriented approach. She is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years of experience in coaching and psychotherapy.

Ewa draws on a mix of methods in her practice and usually works in longer-term therapy lasting six months or more. Sessions typically focus on practical steps a person can try, and on noticing patterns that keep problems going. She names the person’s priorities and works with those goals in mind.

Her background combines psychotherapy, psychology and coaching. She describes herself as a psychotraumatologist and clinical psychologist with experience in trauma-focused work and life coaching. She continues professional development through courses related to psychotherapy and psychotraumatology.

In practice she uses a range of approaches from client-centred work to more structured methods. This means sessions can include reflective listening, skills practice, or targeted trauma techniques when appropriate. The emphasis is on what helps the individual move forward.

Ewa accepts people who speak English and Polish. She also accepts international clients and offers a model of working that blends therapeutic and coaching elements depending on the person’s aims. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

She prefers longer-term therapy but can discuss goals and timeframes during the initial meeting. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Ewa uses evidence-based approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being dominated by them, and to choose actions that align with their values. This can help with anxiety, low mood and decisions about life changes.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that aims to reduce the intensity of distressing memories by processing them in a specific way. It is commonly used for trauma and abuse related issues.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing strong emotions and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and which methods suit the person best, and then agree a plan together. This is a collaborative process that can change over time as needs evolve.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-in sessions when needed. These practical benefits often help people keep continuity of care and make regular appointments more manageable.
