Dr. Abirami R. Kandasamy, C. Psych.
Hi! I am Dr. Abi. I am the Clinic Director of Nanthi Psychology & Wellness. I am a clinical and health psychologist based in London and Markham, Ontario. I specialize in assessing, treating (via psychotherapy), and researching child and adolescent mental health. I am registered with The College of Psychologists of Ontario as a Psychologist in Autonomous Practice.
I am a Tamil-Sri Lankan-Canadian and I mention this because it’s a big part of who I am and how I approach my practice.
When I’m not working, I love to spend time with my dogs, family, and friends. I also love movies, hiking, and cooking!
My doctoral training was completed at the University of Windsor in the Child Track of the Clinical Psychology program and my residency was completed with the London Clinical Psychology Residency Consortium. In addition to the Virtual Psychology Clinic, I work at London Health Sciences Centre.
My research interests are in creating and validating new therapy and assessment tools with a special focus on paediatric pain and equitable access to healthcare.

ADULT THERAPY
Hello! I’m Dr. Laura McGeown, a Clinical Psychologist registered with The College of Psychologists of Ontario. I provide assessment and intervention for adults experiencing difficulties including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, obsessions/compulsions, trauma, and eating disorders. In this clinic, I offer virtual psychotherapy to adults.
My therapeutic approach is evidence-based, integrative, and strongly rooted in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Depending on your needs and our treatment goals, I may integrate other evidence-based interventions, such as Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills, emotion-focused therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy.
I completed my Master’s degree and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at Lakehead University and my predoctoral residency at the Edmonton Consortium Clinical Psychology Residency. In addition to Nanthi Psychology & Wellness, I work with the Adult Eating Disorders Service at LHSC.
Outside work, I enjoy playing with my dog, attending concerts, being outdoors, engaging in joyful movement, reading, and spending time with loved ones.

Hi, I’m Dr. Daniel Provenzano! I am a clinical psychologist based in London, Ontario. I am registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario as a Psychologist in Supervised Practice. I provide assessment and therapy to children and teenagers experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, obsessions and compulsions, behavioural difficulties (e.g., anger/aggression, defiance), and developmental trauma.

In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, watching movies, and spending time with my family.
