Client Testimonials

“There’s always ups and downs in life but being able to talk to someone and open up isn’t as hard as I thought. I’ve learnt through having chats with my counsellor that I have a chance to learn and appreciate the good days.”

– TIACS Client

“Trying to find the right support is tough. It took ages and was difficult, whenever I did find a place available I had to wait ages to get an appointment. I heard about TIACS at work and gave them a call. It was so easy to book in and get started.”

– TIACS Client

“I’m so thankful for the support I received from TIACS. I was seeing someone else and they said I wouldn’t need any further support but I knew that I did. I’m glad I heard about TIACS from work. I’ll be forever grateful.”

– TIACS Client

TIACS is funded by industry for industry

This service is made free by the generous support from a collective of businesses who share a common vision to support the blue collar community by funding easily accessible mental health counselling. Together these businesses form the TIACS Alliance.
