Hello! My name is Cadence Robertson and I am the Client Care Coordinator here at HopeLink. I will often be the first person you connect with, and my goal is to help you feel welcomed and supported as you take your next step towards healing. 

I graduated with my Bachelors in Psychology in May 2025 and am pursuing my masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UT Tyler! I am passionate about creating a safe experience for each individual who reaches out for support. Whether you are booking your first session or just have questions, I am here to make things as easy and comfortable as possible. 

Outside of work and school, I love being involved in my local church and doing life in community with others. It’s truly a privilege to walk alongside you as you take this important step in your journey! “

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor. I have been in the mental health/counseling field for over 16 years with experience in inpatient treatment, private practice, and outpatient community mental health.

 

I have experience in the areas of depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Bulimia Nervosa, body image issues, schizophrenia, trauma, substance abuse, and group therapy. I have a heart to help the hurting and those who come from a hard place. I am passionate about providing support, encouragement, education, and evidence based therapy to help my clients through very difficult chapters in their lives. My desire is to provide my clients with the tools to facilitate emotional, physical, and spiritual growth and healing.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 22 years of experience providing individual, group, and family therapy. I have a passion for hearing the stories of those going through difficult life circumstances. My hope is to provide support, healing, and encouragement to hurting individuals through a cognitive behavioral therapeutic approach to counseling. I have been married to my husband Mark for 26 years and have two young adult children.

 

My areas of interest include:

Regulating emotions - managing anger, anxiety, and depression

Strengthening relationships – improving communication and conflict resolution, assisting with life transitions, working through grief and loss

Coping with crisis – providing recovery skills for self injury, suicidal ideations, and aftercare for suicide attempts

 

I welcome the opportunity to meet with anyone who may need support in a challenging season of life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I obtained my master’s degree from The University of Texas at Austin. I have clinical experience working in outpatient and inpatient mental health treatment centers. I started my career working in an integrated interdisciplinary outpatient clinic where I gained invaluable experience in working with clients facing depression, anxiety, trauma, postpartum depression and relationship difficulties. Upon moving to Tyler, I worked in the behavioral health inpatient psychiatric unit. I expanded my clinical skills in working with clients facing suicidal ideation, loneliness, grief, substance abuse, infidelity, sexual identity, career planning and parental issues. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and I bring a unique set of skills to this group private practice.

 

In working with clients, I develop an individualized and personalized treatment plan tailored to each client. My goal as your therapist is to grant you the opportunity to connect with your inner self: To identify "that" which no longer serves you and to explore and identify your needs in order to give your life the meaning that you want for it to have. As your therapist, I aim to be a gentle companion in your journey of self-discovery and growth. 

Are you feeling stuck or unsure about where you are going in life? Do you often think you are not good enough? Do you try to open up to friends and family, but they just aren’t understanding you how you would like them to? I would love to help!

​

I use an integrated approach in sessions rooted mainly in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered therapy. I come baring a perspective that you deserve happiness, laughter, and to be loved and respected. I find strength in helping to guide you into that space of empowerment in hopes that you are able to let it follow with you outside of the counseling space. I utilize your short- and long-term goals as a basis towards treatment planning and working on what you would like to get out of counseling.

I have experience working with clients aged 15 and up, treating various issues including depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, independent living skills, addictions, neurodivergent issues, severe mental illnesses, and more. I have served clients from many different cultures, religions, experiences, and backgrounds. Christian counseling approaches will integrated only if desired by the client.

​

I follow a collaborative client-therapist approach that encourages clients to practice advocating for themselves and identifying their own needs.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, at a standstill, or unsure of your next step, therapy can offer a supportive space to slow down and reconnect with yourself. Life doesn’t always unfold the way we expect, and at times, it can feel like you’re navigating challenges without a clear map. My hope is that through our work together, you’ll gain clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of direction rooted in your own values and strengths.

You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin therapy. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, one that moves at your pace and centers on what matters most to you. My background includes service in the United States Navy, experience as a juvenile probation officer, and working with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

I am located in Tyler, Texas, and offer both in-person and telehealth sessions. For clients across Texas, secure telehealth options make therapy accessible wherever you are.

 

Don’t hesitate to text or call today for a free 15-minute consultation. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and growth, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Do you feel lost, alone or stuck? If you’re reading this, you might be experiencing things in your life that are weighing you down. Maybe you need some support because you are feeling stressed out or exhausted and you don’t know what to do to feel better. Maybe you have lost someone you love and just facing tomorrow seems impossible. Maybe you have been hurt in the past and you can’t get over the pain. The beauty of counseling is that it gives you a safe place to feel and express all the things that are easier left unspoken.

 

I am passionate about meeting clients where they are, and commit to being fully present with you as you take the brave steps towards changing your life for the better. I have a special interest in helping individuals who are grieving and women who are dealing with unexpected life circumstances such as infertility, divorce, or medical trauma.

 

My therapeutic approach integrates evidence based therapeutic methods from my professional counseling training as well as my life experiences from over 10 years of working with families. I strive to provide compassionate care in a nonjudgmental way in order to empower you to achieve your goals. Call or text today to schedule an appointment.
