After receiving her master's and Specialist in School Psychology degrees from Winthrop,
Dr. Martin-Delaney worked as a school psychologist in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School
District. She joined Winthrop's graduate faculty in 1987.
As a faculty member in the Department of Psychology, Martin-Delaney teaches a variety
of both undergraduate and graduate courses, including "Principles of the Leaning Academy-Honors
(ACAD-H)"; "Racial and Ethnic Identity Development"; and "Seminar in Professional
School Psychology, Childhood Psychopathology and Techniques in Psychological Evaluation
II," just to name a few. Martin-Delaney's research interest areas include consultative
and indirect services for students with learning problems, appropriate assessment
and interventions for children and adults with learning difficulties, and transition
services for students with disabilities. This last interest area is the current focus
of Martin-Delaney's research. In collaboration with two colleagues in the College
of Education, Sport, and Human Sciences, Martin-Delaney wrote the grant to successfully
fund the Winthrop Transition College (WTC) program. WTC is one of five programs specifically
designed to provide a post-secondary educational experience for individuals with moderate
intellectual disabilities. Martin-Delaney also works collaboratively with Disabilities
Services to provide no-cost/low-cost evaluations for Winthrop students who suspect
they may have a learning disability and who are struggling academically.
Martin-Delaney is active professionally at both the state and national level. At
the state level she has served as president of the South Carolina Association of School
Psychologists and currently co-chairs the Program Committee for SCASP. She is a member
of the Transition Advisory Council for York County. She has provided professional
development training to a number of districts across South Carolina on topics ranging
from curriculum-based assessment in writing and math to DSM-IV training for school
psychologists. In addition, Martin-Delaney does independent evaluations of children
with learning and/or behavioral difficulties at the request of school districts and
parents. At the national level, she is an active member of the National Association
of School Psychology. She serves as a reviewer on the National School Psychology Certification
Board and the NASP/NCATE Board of Program Reviewers.
She is a native of Charlotte, N.C., and loves to read and travel in her spare time.
