"Fake polygraph examiner"?  Pardon my abruptness, but that is sort of an oxymoron, since the polygraph falls into the category of "fake" or "pseudo" science.

Do they have marriage counselors in the UK?

You are putting yourself in a position you don't need to be in.  Try to convey to your partner that you have found out that the polygraph is not accurate, reliable nor scientifically valid.  Tell him/her that your ARE willing to enter into valid partnership counseling with them, but that you are NOT willing to jeopardize your relationship based on the results of a bogus test.  

Refer him to this website and the National Academy of Science report which backs up my claim that the polygraph is not "scientifically valid".

Would you agree to let your relationship ride on the findings of a fortune teller, psychic or vedic astrologer?

My advice would be to get legal advice if you are  being physically or mentally abused.  The services of a medically qualified professional (psychologist/psychiatrist) may  be of help, also.

Good Luck,

P.S.  I suffer from an anxiety disorder myself.  It has NO effect on the outcome of a polygraph since the machine is looking to measure sudden  changes in your anxiety response relative to an established baseline.  Though a person with psychological sensitivities might in fact be more vulnerable to the interrogative techniques used by polygraphs.  It is much easier to take advantage of and manipulate a person whose life is experiencing a lot of "background anxiety".  Just realize that,either way, polygraphic measurements do NOTY directly indicate deception, though polygraphists routinely lie and say they do.

Do you get "Showtime" in the UK.  If so, check out this week's episode of "Teller and Penn, bullshit!" .  It deals directly with the absurdity of polygraphic marriage counseling.

georgie,
Take your pick, they are all fakes.

Well MI-5 and/or MI-6 shouldn't be too far from you!  lol
Seriously, I think that issues involving interpersonal relationships, etc. are about the last subjects in which a polygraph should ever become involved!
