About Us
My name is Daniel EllwoodI am a Clinical Psychologist
I have a keen interest and extensive expertise in infant mental health and perinatal mental health, supporting both mothers and fathers during the critical early years of parenting. I am deeply committed to promoting the emotional wellbeing of infants and young children, and I recognize the profound impact that early relationships have on lifelong development. I provide comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, and treatment for a wide range of clinical presentations, including Autism, ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, school attendance issues, parenting challenges, attachment concerns, developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).
My passion for fostering secure parent-child relationships is reflected in my work as a trained Circle of Security Parenting facilitator. I am dedicated to helping families—particularly those navigating the perinatal period—build strong, resilient bonds. I have a particular focus on supporting new parents, with a special interest in the unique mental health needs of fathers as well as mothers, within the broader context of perinatal and men’s mental health.
With extensive experience working across the lifespan, I provide care for individuals from infancy through older adulthood. I have practiced in a variety of settings, including private and public mental health services, schools, community clinics, and multidisciplinary teams. I offer thorough psychological assessments—intellectual, neurodevelopmental, and behavioral—and deliver evidence-based interventions tailored to both high- and low-prevalence disorders.
I am committed to delivering compassionate, individualized care, ensuring that each client receives the support they need to navigate life’s challenges and achieve their fullest potential, with a particular emphasis on the foundational importance of early relationships and parental wellbeing.
(q)curious /ˈkjʊə.ri.əs/
(adjective)
interested in learning about people or things around you:
If you ask a psychologist why they became a psychologist they’ll probably answer: “people interest me” or “I wanted to know why people did the things they do”.
That was me, ever since I can remember. I wanted to know why..
I believe that helping people, begins with understanding people, and this is the foundation of our work as mental health professionals. And it is something that I believe is a strong theme in my practice. Throughout my training, supervisors would always remind me “remain curious”.
I aim to understand you, whether that be through an assessment or psychological intervention or therapy.
