Joelle Mascord – True Heart Therapy

Hi, it's nice to meet you!

I'm Joelle Mascord, and I'm glad you're here.

What is a fun fact about myself?
Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a massage therapist in both a day spa and an athletic club. That experience sparked my interest in helping people feel more balanced, supported, and connected to their overall well-being.

What can you expect as my client?

You can expect to be heard, respected, and supported in a space where you can openly share your thoughts, emotions, and relationship experiences. I work collaboratively with clients to explore what may be contributing to stress or conflict in their lives and relationships. Together we slow things down and work toward healthier ways of communicating, coping, and connecting.

I’m especially interested in helping people understand the patterns that develop within their relationships so they can communicate more clearly, rebuild trust, and create healthier connections.

Who am I outside of therapy?

I’m a single mom to a wonderful 20-year-old daughter who has taught me a great deal about patience, growth, and the evolving nature of parenting. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, visiting the beautiful Oregon coast, and snuggling with my two cats.

Pronouns: She/Her

I hold a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University (formerly NCU).

I also have a bachelor’s of psychology degree from the University of Phoenix.

I’ve worked with families and children with issues such as anxiety, depression, attention disorders, and addressing low self-esteem. I’ve helped families to improve communication and cope with stress through major life changes. I bring a strong sense of empathy, patience, and interpersonal warmth to every interaction that I have. I am skilled in active listening, respectful communication, and providing non-judgmental support.

My ideal client is someone who values personal growth and is committed to making lasting positive changes in their lives and relationships. They are interested in not just addressing specific problems, but also in becoming more aware of themselves and their relationships. They are prepared to engage in the collaborative process of therapy, including homework and self-reflection.
