My hope for our work together is that you feel deeply seen, gently held, and met with compassion—just as you are. I’m honoured to walk alongside you and to offer a space where healing and self-discovery can unfold naturally, at your own pace and in your own way.

about kristie ives and Heartspace therapy


Heartspace Therapy was founded by Kristie Ives to create a grounded, heart-centered space for healing, self-discovery, and reconnection. Located in Lesmurdie, in the beautiful Perth Hills of Western Australia, Heartspace offers Kinesiology, Transpersonal Art Therapy and Counselling, and soulful group workshops that honour the connection between body, mind, and spirit. Sessions are gently tailored to each individual, supporting meaningful transformation, self-awareness, and whole-person alignment.

Kristie brings over 25 years of experience in holistic and energy-based healing. She is an Accredited Kinesiologist, Reiki Master, ITA (Integrated Therapeutic Alignment) Practitioner, and Transpersonal Therapist. Her approach is warm, empathetic, and deeply attuned—offering a safe and supportive space for clients to reconnect with their inner wisdom and cultivate physical, emotional, and psycho-spiritual wellbeing.

Currently completing training in Transpersonal Art Therapy and Counselling, Kristie is integrating these creative, soul-centred modalities into her constantly evolving practice. Her work blends energy medicine, transpersonal therapy, somatic awareness, and vibrational remedies—such as flower and gem essences and essential oils—into sessions that are intentional, responsive, and deeply personalised to support each person’s unique path of healing and growth.

KIND WORDS

Kristie embodies everything that a good therapist should be. She is kind and welcoming, empathetic and compassionate, and she is devoted to improving the health and wellbeing of her clients. Every session with Kristie has been enlightening. There is no way to anticipate the outcome of energy work but I’ve come to trust her intuitive approach. I marvel at her confidence in this realm, and while it is a collaborative process, I’ve found her gentle and astute presence has always brought out the best in me when tackling the issue at hand. The other thing that I’ve come to treasure about Kristie is the space that she has created for her work. It is a sanctuary in every sense of the word and the way that she tends to it is a direct reflection of the effort she is prepared to make for her clients.

I cannot wait to go back and see her and peel back the layers! Kristie is an absolute natural in this field and it is wonderful that there are people like her in our world. Do not hesitate to book a session with her, your body, mind and soul will thank you for it!
