Capacity Building
We provide comprehensive and holistic mental health services that focus on developing skills, knowledge, sustainable solutions and resilience. We are committed to building the capacity of individuals, families, relationships, groups, communities and organisations through training, consulting, coaching, workshop facilitation and student placements. We are committed to supporting groups and organisations build capacity and confidence.
We are always open to new opportunities, so please reach out if you think we can work together. We tailor our workshops and trainings to suit the needs of the group and therefore would be keen to hear from you! ​
Student Placements
As a multidisciplanary team, we offer Master of Counselling and Master of Social Work placements three times a year to students who are aligned with TIF values, mission and purpose as well as have prior transferable experience working with the communities we journey alongside. Social work students typically work as part of the Manaya Pride Program and Master of Counselling students typically work as part of our low cost counselling clinic. If you would like to apply for a placement with us, please use the button below to send us an email with your resume, a short letter and information about your placement from your university.

After our placements team looks over your application we will contact you.
Supervision and Consultation
As part of our commitment to supporting the professional and personal development of allied health professionals, we offer identity affirming supervision and consultation with a focus on decolonising mental health to counsellors, psychotherapists and social workers.
Supervision is essential to a clinician finding and accessing joy in the work, navigating the impacts of working within oppressive and racist systems and understanding how our own lived experience is essential to being an authentic clinician.
Our qualified supervisors and EMDR consultants are dedicated to providing you a space in which you can explore insight, your needs and invest in your and your participants' future.
Training
We have noticed a marked increase in people experiencing mental health problems and crises during the past 3 years. We have also witnessed the parallel growth in anxiety from loved ones who often feel ill-equipped to support the person experiencing these issues. We at TIF, want to change that. Our goal is to provide people with the skills to help youth and adult community members to address their mental health problems and intervene before they become mental health crises. Having mental health first aid skills means that you can assist someone developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis and make a real difference to your community.
Training and workshops
We offer training that is anti-oppressive and focused on de-colonising mental health and psycho-social support
​
In addition to Youth Mental Health First Aid and Adult Mental Health First Aid, we also offer training on impactful community care, investing in queer joy, working with the culturally and racially marginalised [CARM] communitites, neurodivergent affirming practices and working with the LGBTIQAPSB+ communities
