A place for deeper listening

Like any landscape, our inner lives contain many pathways.

There are times when we may feel lost, overwhelmed, at a crossroads, or simply aware that something within us is asking for our attention.

Heartspace offers a place to slow down, turn inward, and explore what is happening beneath the surface — through conversation, the body, creativity, dreams, imagery and symbol.

Together, we listen for what is present, what is emerging, and what may be asking to be known.

Whether you arrive through difficulty, transition, curiosity, or a longing for something more, you are warmly welcome here.

A gentle afternoon of creative reflection, inner listening and Soul Card making as we turn toward spring.

  • The psyche has its own language — through image, dream, body, symbol and story. When we learn to listen, something within us can begin to move.

Hello, I’m Kristie

Transpersonal Therapist, Kinesiologist, and the heart behind Heartspace.

Over the years, I’ve come to believe that healing rarely happens through force, pressure, or fixing. More often, it emerges within relationships that offer safety, compassion, curiosity, and enough space for us to meet ourselves honestly.

Heartspace has grown from this understanding.

My hope is that it offers something of that experience — a soft place to land, a space for deeper listening, and gentle support for whatever may be seeking care, understanding, or expression in your life.

Place & presence

Heartspace is based in the Perth Hills, Western Australia. The work here is quietly informed by this place — its seasons, its slowness, and the living presence of the land on which I meet others.

A quiet way to stay connected

For those who would like to stay in touch, I occasionally share reflections, seasonal offerings, and invitations from Heartspace.

I write infrequently, and only when there’s something meaningful to share.

  • "Kristie is the most compassionate practitioner I know. Her sessions are very potent and I always leave with a sense of energetic lightness and renewal. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.”
