About Katherine
Katherine (Katie) Ssejjemba is a licensed clinical social worker who brings seven years of professional experience to her practice. She trained at East Tennessee State University and holds LCSW credentials in New Mexico and Texas. Katie blends practical tools with a calm, down-to-earth presence.
She often mentions family and her dogs as part of what grounds her outside of work. Katie focuses on everyday struggles like stress and anxiety. She also helps people cope with trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She uses clear, goal-oriented conversations so people can leave sessions with something to try right away. Her style is collaborative and person-centered. She sees the person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on.
Sessions are conversational and aimed at finding useful steps for change rather than long lectures. Katie draws on a mix of approaches to match the issue at hand. She may use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts, or attachment-based ideas to improve relationship patterns.
Mindful and emotionally-focused methods also appear when they fit the client's goals. People who reach out can expect practical coping strategies and support for making life changes. Katie encourages small experiments between sessions.
She recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and aims to make the process straightforward and respectful.

Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, centers on clarifying values and taking small committed actions that align with those values. It helps when worry or avoidance gets in the way of living a meaningful life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice and change how they relate when they feel unsafe or misunderstood. It is useful for relationship struggles and intimacy-related concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. It often includes practical exercises to do between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work and Katie treats it as a team effort. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they pick techniques that fit the person and the issue, then adjust as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, while phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style guidance, or when writing helps someone organize thoughts. These options make it simpler to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to use therapy in ways that suit daily life.
