About Ceyda

Ceyda Soyudal is a counsellor who uses Systemic ideas alongside other talking approaches to help people find clearer pathways through difficult moments. She brings 15 years of experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Her style is practical and respectful, and she aims to help each person notice strengths they already have.

She believes people know their own story and can build change from that knowledge. Sessions focus on exploring how relationships, routines and life events affect wellbeing.

Background and approach

Ceyda helps people untangle family tensions, manage mood swings, and cope with grief or past hurts. Her work also covers issues such as parenting strain, career stress, eating concerns and intimacy-related difficulties. She supports people dealing with trauma, post-traumatic stress, and the effects of prejudice or immigration stress.

Neurodiversity and intellectual disability are among the additional areas she addresses in session. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to look at thoughts and behaviours, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy tools for emotional regulation. Mindfulness and Narrative approaches are used to build awareness and reframe difficult stories.

Systemic ideas are woven into this mix to consider how a person’s relationships shape their experience. Sessions are offered in English and Turkish and can be arranged online. Practical steps and small plans are a regular part of sessions, aimed at making day-to-day life more manageable.

Ceyda works with people to set realistic goals and to try things that might help between meetings.

Online support

How online approaches and the work connect

Systemic Therapy looks at how relationships and daily patterns affect a person’s difficulties, helping to spot routines or interactions that keep problems going. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and helps people test out small behaviour changes to ease symptoms. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and how problems play out in daily life. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan if something is not helping. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversations while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be used for focused check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter or more frequent contact and can suit those who prefer writing. These options increase flexibility and make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family and other commitments.
