FIFO lifestyle is a common way of living for many families. This pattern of employment, working extended hours, being in remote locations, being away from family and friends can have a huge impact on a couples relationship, their mental health and their family unit.
When FIFO workers come home, they want to relax and/or catch-up with their partners, children, their family and friends. They still need to blend in with the existing lifestyle back home of keeping the household, do family commitment tasks and often they feel they don’t get a break.

For the partner and children who live at home, they look forward to have their partner and/or parent back in the house. The partner may seek out more help and participation from their partner who has been away.
These dynamics can play out with a struggle, their communication may be strained, expectations may be high and their relationship can be strained. This pattern may happen in cycles every time they are under the same roof. But there is a new way of life that can be so much more connected and loving.
FIFO Counselling is for Couples and Individuals who:
