Welcome to Aranyani Therapy
Thank you for visiting Aranyani Therapy. My name is Morgan and I am a qualified and experienced psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Durham.
I welcome clients of all genders, ages and backgrounds with an extensive range of concerns. I use an integrative, compassion-focused, trauma-informed, and holistic approach. I work collaboratively and according to each client's unique needs, acknowledging the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit.
About Me
I am a fully qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor, with professional and academic qualifications in psychotherapy and counselling. I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and I follow their professional code of ethics. I have specialist training and experience in many areas including sexual and domestic violence, trauma and chronic stress, mental ill-health, LGBTQIA+, neurodiversity, students and young people, eating difficulties, attachment, loss, hoarding, relationship difficulties and discrimination. I have Safeguarding training and an enhanced DBS certificate.
I will help you to explore your difficulties safely and confidentially, listening with empathy and without judgement. I work in a compassion -focused and trauma -informed way.
Working outside in natural surroundings really adds a unique dimension to therapy and has been shown to be beneficial in many ways. We might choose to work outside in the beautiful gardens and grounds of Ushaw House.
Within my studio/therapy room we might also work with creative arts such as art, writing, sound and movement. This can also have unique benefits to the therapeutic process and our wellbeing.

Some frequently asked questions
Everyone is different and some people don’t know what they want to say or how to start, they just know that things are not ok for them right now. Some people just can’t find words or they are afraid to speak. Some people talk a lot and everything seems to pour out. It is all ok, I offer a relaxed and flexible way of working together. If you want to try, then just show up and we will work it all out together.
I am here to listen to you, with empathy and no judgement. Your wellbeing is the most important thing and we will go at a pace that is right for you. Emotions are important and I can help you to tap into these in a safe way for you and to understand and release them.
No issue is too small or too large. I am here to help you with anything at all that is concerning you within the context of your own life and experiences.
