Gail B. Uhl, PhD

The Campbell and Los Gatos community should know about Gale Uhl’s lack of professionalism and ethics. At a professional level, she is very superficial. She likes to «chat,» (and especially tell about her vast world travels) but she never imparts real therapeutic tools to allow her clients to resolve serious issues.
Much, much worse, she violated our family trust on numerous occasions. In particular, she broke the very guidelines of her profession by emailing and informing non-​participating family members, informing them of highly sensitive information that occurred in separate, private sessions of others. She did this on her own, without any notification or permission. These were gross violations of her oath of confidentiality as a therapist. I quit immediately and never returned. I would never want this to happen to another patient. The fallout from her violating trust in our family has taken a horrendous toll. None of this had to happen except for Uhl’s poor judgment.
There are excellent family counselors in the Campbell, Saratoga, and Los Gatos area, but Uhl is not among them. Our family could never in good conscience recommend her to anyone seeking legitimate, professional therapy. I am still contemplating reporting her violations to the state.
