Help is Close at Hand- PRIMEXL helps manage work life balance, relocation and FIFO relationship issues
We all are faced with challenging times as we go about our daily lives – managing teenagers, marital and relationship issues, death of a loved one or dealing with the symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Many people shy away from help, but counselling can help with a range of personal or relationship ‘issues’, regardless of how simple or complex they may seem. Seeking counselling early can often prevent relatively minor concerns from developing into major or more complex problems.
Looking after our mental health is crucial to maintaining a balanced and fulfilling life. We can often neglect this important aspect of our lives because we are too busy or simply don’t acknowledge some of the symptoms we may be experiencing such as not being able to sleep, being short tempered with others, withdrawal from social contact, inability to focus for any length of time, lack of energy, reduced ability to cope with issues on a daily basis and not listening to our family or friends when they point out we may have a problem.
“By learning to listen to our inner voice and acknowledging that we may have a problem, early intervention with a counselor can often limit and prevent any unnecessary suffering, facilitating a swifter return to leading more fulfilling and functioning lives”, says Tracey Hancock, PRIMEXL's Operations Manager of Psychological Services.
PRIMEXL has been providing assistance to the Western Australian community for over 23 years. PRIMEXL operates from a range of locations across Australia and all counseling provided is strictly confidential with highly qualified and experienced psychologists.

Relocation
Relocating to a new job can often be a stressful time when you are settling into a new community, away from family and friends. If you are feeling isolated and alone and not fitting in with life away from home, counseling can often assist you to clarify your needs, build resilience and develop skills to manage your day to day life.
FIFO Relationship Support
The nature of FIFO work can make it difficult for the family unit to function at times and create undue stress on workers and their families. PRIMEXL has experience working FIFO workers and has achieved successful outcomes in counseling families and couples on ways to manage and function effectively within the FIFO environment.
PRIMEXL has also developed a unique FIFO support programme where couples can come together and develop strategies of how to get the most out of their time together and explore ways to cope with the time spent apart.
