Ceyda Soyudal

Ceyda Soyudal is a counsellor who works from a practical, people-focused approach. She uses straightforward therapies to help individuals manage stress, anxiety, low mood and life changes. Ceyda brings 15 years of experience supporting people through relationship concerns, grief, trauma and issues around self-esteem and motivation.

She generally starts by listening to a person's story and spotting strengths to build on. Sessions are aimed at helpful change rather than labels, and she encourages small, manageable steps that fit into everyday life. Her way of working combines problem-solving with learning new skills to handle strong feelings.

Across her practice Ceyda draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Mindfulness, alongside narrative and psychodynamic ideas. These approaches are used to address a wide range of concerns including ADHD, bipolar difficulties, eating issues and intimacy-related problems. She also gives attention to immigration-related stress, multicultural concerns and intellectual disability where these are relevant to the person she is supporting.

Ceyda is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English and Turkish. Her style aims to be warm, direct and respectful while helping people find practical ways to cope.

She asks clients to treat therapy as a partnership, with goals set together and progress reviewed regularly. This helps keep work focused and relevant to each person's life and needs.

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, focuses on noticing patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going and learning practical skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and coping with life transitions. DBT, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, teaches clear emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance skills alongside ways of improving relationships and communication. Mindfulness Therapy helps people learn gentle attention to the present moment and reduces rumination and reactivity.

Choosing the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. Sessions will be adjusted over time based on what proves most helpful and what the person feels comfortable trying.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone keep therapy going while living abroad, which is useful for international clients. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often combine practical skills training with talking work in online sessions to help people apply changes in their daily life.
