About Ceyda

Ceyda Soyudal helps people work on stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns using talking therapies. She works with issues such as self‑esteem, coping with life changes, parenting and grief. Ceyda is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 15 years of professional experience.

Ceyda describes clients as the experts in their own story and focuses on building practical skills alongside understanding life patterns. Sessions may include exploring thoughts and behaviours, learning emotional regulation skills, and looking at personal narratives that shape current problems. She uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her.

Her work often covers longer‑running difficulties as well as more immediate pressures. Subjects she addresses include trauma and abuse, intimacy or sexual issues, eating concerns, anger and career worries. She also lists attention‑related difficulties such as ADHD and mood conditions such as bipolar among the areas she supports.

Ceyda also attends to wider social and developmental factors. Her additional focus areas include autism and Asperger syndrome, intellectual disability, immigration and multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, and young adult issues. She notes postpartum depression and post‑traumatic stress in her practice.

Sessions are offered in English and Turkish. People who live outside the United Kingdom may also be able to work with her, and she uses an online matching and scheduling process to set up first appointments.

Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. It is practical and often used for anxiety, depression and stress by focusing on small experiments and skills to manage feelings.

DBT concentrates on emotional regulation and coping strategies for intense feelings. It teaches breathing and grounding skills alongside techniques for tolerating distress and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your situation, goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That plan can draw on different approaches over time so that the methods fit your needs rather than being fixed at the start.

Check which session formats are currently offered before you book, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule appointments around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in conversations when needed. They also allow people who live abroad to work with a UK‑based counsellor, subject to any local regulations.
