Welcome to Concordia, Deena Martin

Posted on: Jul 11, 2022

Please welcome Deena to CUE’s Psychology Clinic team as the Psychology Clinic Manager.

Informed. Connected. Compassionate. These three words drive Deena’s professional practice where she blends western and eastern philosophies to invite meaning and transformational conversations. She holds a Bachelor of Community Rehabilitation from the University of Calgary and her Masters and PhD degrees (Educational Psychology) are from the University of Alberta.

Over the past 30 years, she has worn several professional hats including professor, healthcare regulator, and psychologist.  Recent career highlights from her time at the College of Alberta Psychologists include developing the Law and Ethics for Alberta Psychologists Examination, designing the Continuing Competence Program (for 4300 psychologists), and writing/updating 10+ practice guidelines and trainings.

During the week, she can be found anywhere from a counselling office, a boardroom, or at the front of a conference hall….(now you will find her in CUE’S new PsyD Training Clinic!).  

On the weekends, she enjoys riding two wheels through the mountains or paddling Alberta’s wandering rivers. On non adventure weekends, she can be found digging in her vegetable and flower gardens with her two favourite male companions (one 2 legged and one 4 legged).
