Meet Michelle Inder

I’m a trauma-informed somatic coach and narcissistic abuse specialist, originally from New Zealand and now based in Portugal. Through my partnership with The Mental Wellbeing Company, I’m committed to making trauma-informed, somatic healing accessible for women recovering from toxic relationships, codependency, burnout, and over-functioning. As a Certified Trauma Informed Coach, I’ve completed the ICF- and CPD-accredited Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching Certification and am a proud member of the Trauma Informed Professional Network — the fastest growing community of trauma-informed professionals worldwide.

My mission is to provide a safe, compassionate space where women can reconnect with their inner strength and cultivate healthy, fulfilling relationships — both with themselves and others. I support women in moving beyond survival mode and into a life of self-trust, confidence, and emotional freedom by integrating somatic coaching and nervous system regulation with deep, personalized support.

In addition to my trauma-informed training, I also bring complementary practices including NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and Huna, an ancient Hawaiian energy healing approach. These tools, combined with my lived experience, allow me to meet each woman where she is and walk alongside her as she reclaims her power and reconnects with her true authentic self.
