About Katherine
Katherine (Katie) Ssejjemba is a licensed clinical social worker who brings seven years of experience to her work. She draws on practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, parenting challenges, and low self-esteem. Katie speaks plainly and focuses on clear steps people can use in day-to-day life.
She earned her degree from East Tennessee State University and holds social work licenses in New Mexico and Texas. Katie believes clients know their own stories and that therapy builds on existing strengths.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with steady attention to what matters most to each person. Katie uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. In practice this looks like helping someone name their feelings, notice patterns, and try small changes between sessions.
She also draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to keep the work collaborative and respectful. People come to Katie for help with grief, relationship and communication problems, caregiver stress, and life transitions. She also supports those coping with guilt, shame, loneliness, and questions about life purpose and self-love.
Her work blends practical strategies with attention to emotions behind difficult behaviors. Sessions aim to be manageable and relevant. Katie often suggests short experiments to try outside sessions and checks in about what helps and what does not.
This keeps progress tied to a person's real life and daily routines.

Online support
How Katie’s approaches translate to online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and name intense feelings and the patterns those feelings create in relationships. Online sessions can support this work by giving space to describe emotional moments and practice new responses with a therapist's guidance.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values, mindful acceptance, and committed action. Through online meetings Katie can coach clients in small exercises that build more value-driven behavior and acceptance of difficult personal experiences.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early bonds affect current relationships and reactions. In remote sessions Katie helps clients notice attachment patterns and practice new ways of connecting or communicating in everyday life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Katie works together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That decision is revisited as therapy proceeds so the plan stays aligned with what the client wants to accomplish.
Online therapy offers flexible access to her work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for emotion-focused exercises. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text sessions make it easier to fit brief coaching and between-session check-ins into a busy day.
