Getting to know Courtney Uppendahl
Hi! I'm Courtney. Therapy is a collaborative journey. I believe in holding space for your story while we work together to achieve your goals. When you come to a therapy session, I hope you can come as you are and be your authentic self. The therapeutic relationship is built on trust and invites clients to practice vulnerability to examine those parts of ourselves that no longer serve us. Through this work, we can discover practical tools to help us grow and overcome our biggest challenges.
My approach combines an empathic, client-centered outlook informed by research and various evidence-based practices to help clients feel validated and empowered as they work toward their behavioral goals. I truly enjoy helping individuals navigate everyday challenges, childhood memories, trauma, parenting, and life transitions. I use a combination of strength-based, behavioral, and cognitive interventions to help clients become present, focused, and skillful.
Throughout my years of practice, I have worked with a diverse population of clients. I have collaborated closely with families and children in community mental health, adults in structured short-term therapy, adolescents in school settings, and individuals struggling with substance abuse. I have had the opportunity to be trained in multiple evidence-based practices, which aligns with my desire to bring research-based treatments into my work. We are all unique, and one style of treatment does not fit everyone. My training has given me the tools and knowledge needed to create specialized treatment plans for each individual I work with.
I hold a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of San Francisco, which has provided a strong foundation for my clinical work and commitment to evidence-based care.
What should a new client know about working with you?
It is important to me that we work together to identify the root of what is causing you distress. We will spend time exploring this and determine strategies or tools that you can incorporate into your everyday life to find relief. I utilize different assessments to help guide us in treatment and notice trends of improvements. I will often check back on the goals we have set for treatment and use those to guide us in our work together.

In-network insurances
Courtney Uppendahl, LMFT has 200+ in-network plans.
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
