LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Claudia Martinho

Guiding you through change — with clarity, courage, and care.

I’m Claudia, a Certified Trauma-Informed Coach and founder of Work in Progress Lab.

I created this space for people navigating life’s turning points, whether that’s burnout, big transitions, or simply a feeling that something needs to shift. My work is grounded in the belief that growth doesn’t mean doing more, it means coming back to yourself with honesty and compassion.

I’ve lived through reinvention, and I know how disorienting yet powerful it can be. That’s why I combine trauma-informed coaching, somatic tools, and behavioural insight to help you move through change with intention. Work in Progress Lab is here to support you as you reset, realign, and step into your next chapter, at your own pace, in your own way.
