Psychological Support for FIFO Workers in WA
The fly-in-fly-out work roster presents distinct psychological challenges for workers and their families. Ashcliffe provides structured, individual counselling sessions for FIFO workers, their partners, and their adolescent or adult children.
Our services are delivered by registered psychologists in a confidential environment, focusing on evidence-based strategies to address the pressures associated with the FIFO lifestyle.
Navigating the Pressures of FIFO Life
The demands of fly-in-fly-out work require resilience, and professional support can be beneficial in managing the associated pressures. Our confidential counselling provides support for the challenges of separation, burnout, and difficulties with reintegration at home.
We are committed to providing a confidential, respectful, and non-judgemental environment to address the mental health challenges common among FIFO workers and their families.
How We Support FIFO Workers
We offer personalised counselling services that address the specific needs of the FIFO community.

FIFO work can at times contribute to feelings of anxiety and depression. Our psychologists can provide strategies to help you manage symptoms, build resilience, and improve your overall wellbeing.

High-pressure work environments and long rosters can lead to chronic stress and burnout. We can help you develop practical coping mechanisms and strategies for recovery.

The FIFO lifestyle impacts the entire family. We offer relationship counselling to help you and your partner navigate the challenges of long-distance relationships, improve communication, and strengthen your connection. We also provide support for families to help manage the dynamics of FIFO life.
