Our Team

Aisling O’Connor, Principal Psychologist

I am a psychologist with a special interest in Counselling Psychology  who is registered with the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) with over 10 years clinical experience.

MORE

I have been fortunate enough to have worked in various roles in schools, family services, private practice and university settings.
I have worked with people across the lifespan and from many different cultural backgrounds. After completing a Degree in Psychology at National University of Ireland Galway, I then studied a master’s in Counselling Psychology at La Trobe University in Melbourne.

I then continued my love for learning with Play Therapy Australia and completed the Clinical Program in Child Centred Play Therapy and Filial Therapy.

I am extremely passionate about working with children and their families. Opening “Connections” has been a lifelong dream that started over 20 years ago when I went to see a child therapist due to my parents separating.
I really do understand how difficult it can be as a child to walk in the door of a therapist’s office and then to have to try and open up about your feelings! My clinical work is guided by evidence-based theories such as Interpersonal Theory, Attachment Theory and Interpersonal Neurobiology.

I am trained in many different modalities but my preferred way of working with children is using Child Centred Play Therapy.

Ewa, Psychologist

I am a psychologist specializing in clinical and personality psychology and a member The Psychological Society of Ireland (M.A. Psych., M 12924). I graduated with honors from National Louis University in Poland.

MORE

In 2022, I wrote a research paper on the emigration of Polish people to Ireland and their feelings of stress and anxiety in the process of acculturation. The research work initiated the process of expanding knowledge about emigration and the difficulties associated with it.

My professional path has always been associated with working with youth and adults. I gained experience working in a center for young people with difficulties from pathological environments and in a Psychiatric Hospital in Poland.

I am constantly expanding my knowledge and participating in trainings on selected clinical issues and in scientific conferences.

I have always been passionate about working with people. My goal is to make young people feel safe and happy, I try to create a good atmosphere at meetings full of respect and acceptance, where everyone feels important and needed. In my work, I use an integrative approach, using methods tailored to the individual needs of the child.

I am perfectly aware that when a child needs support, it is also not easy for parents, which is why I also try to support parents in building a safe parent-child relationship.
