About Ewa
Ewa Polit is a counsellor with seven years of experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She supports those facing relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and family strain, grief, and career or life changes. Ewa also works with people concerned about ADHD, bipolar mood issues, compassion fatigue and a range of attachment or abandonment worries.
Ewa takes a straightforward, person-focused approach in sessions.
Background and approach
She listens first and works with each person to set practical goals. Conversations can include gentle body-focused work alongside talking therapies to help people notice how feelings show up in the body. Sessions are usually longer-term when people want deeper change over months.
Her practice draws on a mix of approaches. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and choose values-based actions. Client-centred methods prioritise empathy and the person’s own perspective.
Somatic ideas are used to connect physical sensations with emotions and coping responses. Ewa holds BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and continues professional learning in trauma and psychotherapy. She combines coaching and counselling skills to support both short-term goals and more in-depth therapeutic work.
Sessions are offered in English and Polish. People who start work with Ewa are encouraged to shape the pace and focus of sessions. She aims to make the room a calm place to be honest and try new ways of coping.
Practical steps and gentle self-awareness exercises are often part of the work together.
Approaches that combine body awareness and practical tools
Somatic-informed work focuses on how emotions and memories show up in the body. This can help people who notice tension, dissociation or physical reactions when stressed to become more aware and learn new bodily responses.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions linked to their values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions where taking small, values-based steps matters.
Client-centred therapy places the person’s own experience at the heart of the work. The therapist offers empathy and genuine listening while clients lead the pace and focus of sessions.
Ewa treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss different methods and adapt the work to the client’s needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing a single method. Together they decide what to try first and review progress as therapy continues.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel and allow people to continue work from different locations. They also let people choose a way of communicating that feels most comfortable while still drawing on the approaches described above.
