Dr Bridget Bassilios is a Clinical Psychologist, Health Psychologist and Psychologist based in North Melbourne. You can find the practice at 93a Errol Street, North Melbourne VIC 3051.
In day to day work, Dr Bassilios offers counselling sessions for people who are dealing with tough feelings and change. Many clients come in because life feels a bit too heavy at the moment, or because thoughts and worries won’t quite switch off.
A big part of the work is stress management. Sessions can help you spot what’s driving the stress, and then build more useful ways to cope. At times, that might mean looking at patterns in how you respond to pressure, or learning skills you can use when things start to feel overwhelming.
Dr Bassilios also provides support for anxiety and depression. This can include working through low mood, loss of motivation, and that tight, on edge feeling some people live with. Treatment often focuses on understanding what’s going on, and putting practical steps in place so things feel more manageable.
Behavioural therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) are part of the toolkit. CBT usually helps people notice how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. From there, sessions aim to make changes that actually fit into real life, not just in theory. It’s often about trying small actions, then adjusting when you learn what works for you.
Appointments are for adults and can suit people who want a steady space to talk things through. Over time, many clients find it helpful to have clearer goals, repeatable coping skills, and support that doesn’t ignore how hard things can be.
Dr Bassilios works to keep sessions grounded and practical. The focus is on helping you move forward in a way that feels realistic, one step at a time.
