Purple Psychology
I’m a writer and researcher exploring human behavior, hidden patterns, and societal dynamics. I love connecting ideas across disciplines to help people think critically, live authentically, and better understand themselves and the world. My work includes poetry, books, essays, a podcast called Purple Psychology, and more—I have a heart for anyone seeking guidance, and I’ve spent my adult life helping students who don’t feel like they “fit” the mold. If that’s you, or you simply feel drawn to the space, I hope you’ll visit and stay for a time with me.©️Dr Naoisé O’Reilly 2026
