About Ceyda
Ceyda Soyudal is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She supports people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self esteem, depression and relationship problems. She also works with concerns such as anger, trauma and abuse, grief and life changes.
She frames clients as experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Ceyda aims to help people understand what keeps a problem going and what small changes might alter that pattern.
Her background includes a mix of talking therapies. She uses methods that help people notice thoughts and behaviours, manage strong emotions, and tell their story in a different way. These methods are drawn from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, mindfulness approaches, narrative ideas and psychodynamic thinking.
In a session she will listen to specific difficulties and suggest manageable techniques to try between meetings. That might include skills for handling anger, ways to reduce anxiety, or strategies to rebuild confidence after setbacks. The focus is on clear steps someone can practise day to day.
Ceyda offers work in English and Turkish and has experience with multicultural and immigration-related concerns. She also supports people with neurodiversity, parenting pressures, career stress and eating or intimacy-related issues. To begin she asks people about their situation and goals, then agrees a practical plan.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy in her work. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test them with small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood. DBT offers skills for emotion regulation and tolerating distress when feelings become overwhelming.Finding the right method is a collaborative process. Ceyda will talk through goals and try approaches that match what matters to the client. She adjusts methods based on how someone responds and what fits their daily life.
