Description        

Dr. Kimberly Wulfert is a licensed psychologist offering evolving women mindful and meditative therapies to light their way in the 21st century.

Are you over 40 and asking "Is this all there is?"

Are you feeling trapped in dullness?

Do you numb your Self to keep going?

Has your life lost meaning, focus, and joy?

You are not alone. I have been there too. I can help you rise out of mediocrity, boredom, melancholy, mindlessness, and pessimism about the next turn of events in your life.

You are meant to live like your soul depends on it...because it does. The nature of your soul is deep joy. Deep joy that pulses/vibrates naturally within you from a connection to the pulse of All there is, as this is you too.

There is no blaming, shaming or pointing the finger when working with me. It's about changing the perspective and using a higer, wider and deeper lens. Viewing your situation or life from this perspective gives you understanding you don't have when you're stuck or still living it or numbing yourself to avoid it. This work is positive and powerful.

Profile and Credentials        

I have been a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in southern California since March 1989. (PSY #11065) I am a traditionally trained psychologist, with my BS, MA and PhD all in psychology with a clinical orientation.

I have studied and worked with most every age group, from women and couples who are pregnant (area of research dissertation) or infertile to infants, to 65. It's been my pleasure to do so, but now i focus on mid-life women and older, with the occasional man warmly accepted, who is usually a creative or spiritual person.

Today I approach my work with adults from a non-traditional, but nonetheless scientifically sound basis in the fields of neuroscience, contemplative practices such as mindfulness and meditation, but not from a Buddhist perspective. I teach secular methods of two these different mind/body health practices and impose no spiritual orientation.

Meditation has been researched intensely and is shown to help people overcome psychophysiological and emotional distress, fear, anxiety, depression, boredom, problems focusing and for discovering one's true nature and purpose.

Mindfully based awareness techniques have been found to be as powerful as anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medication for those who practice this type of brief meditation regularly.

I meet you where you are, whether it be a spiritual or secular perspective when we work together.

Meditation is for mind/body health and calmness. I teach beginning meditation classes through Ojai Park and Rec., teaching three ways to practice silent meditation. I also teach Intro to Meditation at a spiritual center in Ojai, from the perspective of the Ageless Wisdom.

Philosophy and Comments        

I came to realize the key to emotional well-being and living life joyfully and more or less worry free for many people who had come to see me over the years was to find their answers from within, and experience happiness and meaningful work or purpose in their every day life.

My role is to be the temporary bridge for you to walk across to find your answers and future guidance within your Self.

1. One session is dedicated to getting your history and from that point we work in the present, with current experiences, not focused on the past.

2. There is no diagnosing or labeling. If you would be better served by a traditional approach to psychotherapy, I will talk with you about this and make a referral.

3. We focus on you, not others. The power to change and expand your understanding and awareness is yours and yours alone regarding how you act, feel, and think.

4. Creativity, being in nature, journaling, engaging in some form of mindfulness or meditation, socializing,reading, and serving others in some way, are all called upon to open you up, heighten your vibration and move you through changes you desire.

Work Hours and Fee Schedule        

Office hours for inquiry calls are Monday through Thursday, 11 AM to 7 PM Pacific time, Friday 11 AM to 4 PM. All client sessions are by appointment only. Services are offered in person, in groups, in workshops and by phone and Skype, video and auditory.

Fees are determined by the service offered and will be discussed with the client or organization in advance.

Insurance is not billed by my office, but the client can submit my bill to their insurance company for reimbursement if applicable to their plan, I am not on insurance panels by choice.

Speaker        

Would you like a presentation that relates to women over 40? I have been a speaker, on the national circuit, since 1998, speaking to small and medium size groups of women about various subjects for various organizations, museums, private and public groups and hospitals. Contact me to discuss your particular needs. If I can't help you, perhaps I can refer you to a colleague who fits your topic.

Working with me is customized, personalized by you.        

I take my cues from you as we approach your expansion and growth. With my full training as a clinical psychologist, you can feel safe that we won't go places you shouldn't go. Everything we do is sound and in the here and now, in your body and mind.

On the other hand, I help you stretch your vision to a be bigger one, a la Marianne Williamsons' profound words that tell us that our problem isn't that we set our sites too high, but that we set them to low.
