Life’s challenges—expected or unexpected—can leave us feeling stuck or uncertain. With the right support, they can also become opportunities to pause, reflect, and grow.

I’m a Registered Psychologist with over 25 years of experience across disability services, mental health, education, and community systems. My work focuses on helping people—particularly those in caring and leadership roles—find steadiness, clarity, and sustainable ways of showing up in demanding environments.

I bring a practical approach to mindfulness and compassion, not as ideals to perfect, but as everyday skills that help us stay grounded and human.

Outside of work, I grow beautiful weeds in my garden, knit perfectly imperfect hats, and make wonky mugs and bowls in pottery—reminders that care and presence don’t require perfection, just attention and intention. 

I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to reach out by phone/text to 78O 9O9 4939 or email: deena.m.martin@gmail.com
