About me
I'm Karan, the founder of Brown Swan Counselling.
Having experienced the benefits of therapy, my aim is to provide you with a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship and a confidential, safe space where you can speak freely without judgement or interruption. I approach the therapeutic process through talking therapy and as a client, you will be at the centre of our sessions. I will actively listen to you without interruption and together, we will address your traumas, anxieties, thoughts, and feelings from your frame of reference.
Whether you're seeking clarity, self-improvement, or emotional well-being, I will see and hear you for the unique individual that you are. Although I can't promise to 'fix' you, I will work with you with unconditional positive regard, listen to your story with empathy, compassion, and integrity, and always bring sincerity to every session to help you realise your full potential.
I will strive to support you to find a new pathway through present and/or historical traumas and anxieties. It can be emotionally demanding work and there may be times when it feels challenging, however, when a strong connection is in place, and you feel ready, personal growth can be achieved having a positive and lasting impact on your life.
As our sessions are based around your needs, it is your choice where our sessions will take place. You can visit me in Atherstone for a face-to-face session, or remotely via telephone or online.
We all need support at times, and I'd be honoured to be a part of your journey.
Training, qualifications & experience
As a qualified person-centred counsellor, I am able to offer sessions of talking therapy that will help you to understand your true self and work through the issues that are causing, or have caused, unrest, anxiety, and/or ill mental health.
I currently work with a local charity to provide counselling for male, female, and non-binary survivors of domestic abuse. I am also trained in, but not limited to, ill mental health conditions, domestic abuse, sexual violence, and mental health in the workplace.
As a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychology (BACP), I work in accordance with their ethical framework to ensure I provide a safe, quality service which meets individual needs.
My training and personal experiences have shown me the power of genuine, unconditional support; and to provide this for others in need is a true privilege.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
When you contact Brown Swan Counselling, you will be offered a free 15-minute, initial assessment over the phone. During this time, we will discuss your need for counselling and determine if I can offer the best service for your requirements. The next steps will involve arranging our sessions and creating a working agreement together that will outline the boundaries and confidentiality limitations to keep us both safe during our work.
