About Karen
For three decades, I've championed the rights of children and families. As CEO of One Family since 2001, I transformed a grassroots organisation into Ireland's national voice for one-parent families. This work taught me what matters most: truly seeing people and honouring their unique stories.
Now, I'm bringing that same commitment to my work as an Entheos-trained celebrant and marriage solemniser. I hold space for all kinds of ceremonies, paying close attention to detail and working collaboratively with you to create rituals that feel authentic and memorable.
I create ceremonies from the heart and the head—meaningful rituals that honour who you are and what matters most to you.
Entheos is an ethical, inclusive organisation for those who cannot or prefer not to mark life's milestones in traditional faith settings. We embrace the concept of the "g(o)od within"—the belief that divinity and goodness reside within each person. This allows us to choose language that resonates with your personal philosophy, creating ceremonies as unique as you are.
My intention is to work with you to develop the ceremony you want, ultimately delivering a meaningful and heartfelt ritual for you and your loved ones to remember.
I have decades of experience in people management, business development and leadership. I am delighted to be completing my Diploma in inclusive Coaching through Inclusive Futures Academy, working toward accreditation with the International Coaching Federation. Coaching is a natural extension of my celebrancy and CEO work—all are about supporting people through important moments in life.
I want to support you in your life and career journeys through sensitive, challenging
and future-focussed coaching sessions.
