Abstract

This research is motivated by the importance of the resilience of the role of wives of migrant workers who have Long Distance Relationship (LDR) status in increasing household resilience. The counseling process provides hope to help mothers face and solve family problems with various factors and challenges in border areas. This study aims to identify and provide treatment using family counseling. This study uses a case study approach to study, explain, and interpret the role of mothers in household resilience. The research instruments used were in-depth interviews, observation, and individual counseling. Through this study, it was concluded that counseling for wives who are in a long-distance relationship in their household is very much needed to strengthen household resilience. However, this counseling should be done routinely, at least once a month, considering that wives generally cannot express their problems to others, which results in their inner conflict. This research is important because the important role of family counseling in this study is to assist mothers in dealing with crisis problems, finding appropriate solutions, and developing the ability to work together in the family.
