Facilitation

 

My approach is heart-centred, anti-oppressive and I design processes that challenge the status quo. I bring 12+ years of facilitation experience and can support you and have supported groups virtually and in-person to cultivate connection, hold more intentional and impact-oriented meetings and gain greater access to their individual and collective strengths.

  • Team building workshops and retreats

  • Board or staff meetings navigating sticky and tricky topics

  • Getting unstuck and finding momentum generating new ideas

Facilitation and process design is tailored to every client's specific needs.

Let’s see what we can do together.

Team Retreats

 

I design heart-centered team retreats and collective experiences that cultivate connection and hold space for meaningful participation. With 12+ years of facilitation experience, I support teams and boards with:

  • Team development

  • Change management and transitions

  • Strategic planning

  • Challenging decision-making

Whether addressing tricky topics, aligning with values, or gaining clarity on strategic goals, my tailored approach helps teams navigate change, strengthen relationships, build trust and unlock collective strengths. 

Retreats range from a single full day to multi-day experiences. Let’s create something transformative together so you can do the work you do with greater purpose and impact.

  • Kareen designed and facilitated our annual team retreats. Their facilitation style really puts people at ease and sets the stage for a warm and connected experience. They were really able to attune to the group’s needs and emotions, making space for us to pivot where we needed to so that we could make the most of our time together. They show up prepared, organized, and professional - you are in good hands with Kareen.

  • Kareen led our team through a strategic planning process in a way that was supportive and caring, using a thoughtful, values-driven approach that prioritized impact and inclusivity.They held space and were able to synthesise many different voices to help guide our future decisions, and their skilled facilitation allowed all team members to feel fully involved. This led to the creation of a tangible and actionable strategic plan that captures our collective vision, priorities and core values. I wholeheartedly recommend working with them!

  • I had the pleasure of working with Kareen when they facilitated a session for our organizational retreat. Kareen’s inquiry-based approach prompted our team’s generative and insightful exploration for how we can lean into our strengths to support our work together. Kareen thoughtfully and intentionally created an inclusive space for open dialogue and ignited our energy to build a collective vision and action plan for continuing to advance our mission.
