Melanie Rodrigues
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, BA
Hi, I'm Melanie! My clients would describe me as funny, quirky, and authentic - and I think those descriptors are pretty dead-on. I specialize in working with all the things that make us truly, deeply human such as intimacy, death, and identity.
I have been working as a Registered Psychotherapist in Oxford County since 2018, and founded the Ingersoll Wellness Hub in 2025. I have a deep investment in the community, and hope I can help you on your pathway to wellness.
My Specialties
Working with LGBTQIA2S+ folx: I hold a degree in Sexuality, Marriage, and Family Studies - a program renowned for its' focus on equity, diversity, and inclusion. I have a great depth of knowledge and experience that supports me in providing queer-informed mental health and relationship care.
Trauma Recovery: My strong background in trauma treatment stems from work experience working in the field of addictions, death & bereavement, and with marginalized communities. With leading-edge training from institutions such as SICKKIDS Children's Hospital, I am privileged to sit with my clients and process life's most difficult moments.
Sex Therapy: I promise - it's not weird. I support individuals and couples struggling with a variety of concerns related to intimacy, including but not limited to: sexual dysfunction, pain, sexual trauma, desire, and pornography. With solid training from the University of Guelph, I have the skills to walk you through conversations about these concerns while minimizing any embarrassment.
Clinical Supervision: Whether you are seeking a clinical supervisor for your CRPO registration, or just need some additional support and encouragement in your clinical practice - hit me up! My supervision style is gentle, energetic, and curious. I practice from a relational model of supervision, with education from the University of Ottawa and The Sacred Self Wellness Collective.
Contact
