Client Feedback

This training (MHFA) was very useful and relevant to what we experience on a daily basis. The course gave useful tools to use in our interactions with clients. It would be great to see this course included in all public service industries.

With staff supporting those with mental health problems we have implemented Mental Health First Aid training as a way to provide a standard and ensure all staff have the skills they need in their role. I was very impressed with this training and the impact it had through improved service to clients as well as increase in workplace relations for staff, we are now proud to be recognised as  a 'mentally healthy workplace' and look forward to continuing to work with TMF Training Solutions for our mental health training needs.

I was hesitant to attend this training as I myself have suffered from mental illness and thought it would be quiet confronting. I found this course (MHFA) very informative and well presented. The activities kept everyone engaged. I now have a better understanding of my own triggers and how best to support others who may be experiencing mental illness.

Having just attended DRUMBEAT with our clients I would certainly recommend this program. The session and focused on using hand drums as a recovery tool. Each week new skills were taught to the group and participants were able to link experiences within their own life with drumming analogies. I was especially excited by the progress that I observed people managing psychosis made during this journey. It appeared that communicating via the drum was at times easier than verbally and it was a delight to watch the growth in confidence and ability that took place.

A big thank you to Tanya for a great 2 days!! I am very happy with how much I have learnt. Great presentation. We were not judged for our ignorance regarding mental health issues, our instructor had great knowledge on the course content and was able to provide an answer for every question we had. There were a lot of tough topics but Tanya’s sensitivity and care in our group really helped. I definitely recommend this training to everyone.

I have attended a number of training sessions over the years for professional development activities and Mental Health First Aid was definitely one of the best I have done. The data, research and statistics demonstrated the real impact and prevalence of mental illness and how it touches everyone. The highlight for me from the course was being able to walk away with an action plan of  how to identify, assist and support which we can apply in our workplace.

Very informative, clarified many of the myths and disbeliefs in our community about mental illness and gave us clear statistics about them. This gave me a better understanding of how to support and where to go for assistance for someone who may have a mental illness

Excellent facilitator, very knowledgeable , respectful and considerate of our group. Relevant information, easy to understand. Good practical activities. I found the training will help in both my studies and employment in mental  health. Would love to see this training in more industries. Thank you
