We are Abien Psicología
Abien Psicología was born from the idea of creating a warm, professional space where each person can be supported in their own way.
We believe in a psychology that adapts to people, not the other way round, and in the value of sharing knowledge and perspectives with other professionals. That is why, alongside our work in sessions, we collaborate with trusted psychologists who share our way of understanding the profession.

Álvaro Bueno
My name is Álvaro. I am a general health psychologist and the founder of Abien Psicología.
Throughout my career I have focused my work especially on anxiety, depression, phobias, trauma and self-esteem, as well as emotional and relationship difficulties. For years I also worked with many teenagers and young people, an experience that is still part of my practice, although my work today is mainly therapy with adults.
I have always placed great value on self-knowledge, critical thinking and the ability to understand why we do, think or feel certain things. That is why, before trying to change anything, it is essential for me to really get to know the person in front of me, their story and the context in which their problem appears.
But I also see therapy as a process in which, step by step, we need to move from understanding to action.
I consider myself an integrative therapist. My way of working brings together different approaches and tools, including cognitive-behavioural therapy, EMDR, contextual therapies and mindfulness. I don't see these approaches as fixed formulas, but as different ways of understanding and intervening that I can combine depending on each person, their situation and the goals we set together.
I don't believe there is a single way of doing therapy that works for everyone. That is why I try to adapt the tools, the pace and the goals to each person and to the moment they are in.
I like the people who come to see me to play an active role in their own process. In therapy we can reflect, question things, understand recurring patterns and learn new tools, but also take what we work on outside the sessions and see what happens in real life.

We also see psychology as collaborative work, where sharing perspectives and knowledge enriches the way we practise. That is why we work with trusted professionals with whom we share projects and a close, committed way of understanding the profession.

Pablo Carbó
Hi, I'm Pablo Carbó Martínez, a psychologist in Valencia.
I specialise in substance addiction and neuropsychology. I studied my degree at the University of Valencia and at Université Paul-Valéry in Montpellier.
I also have experience working with personality disorders and eating disorders, and in applying dialectical behaviour therapy.
I have worked with children, teenagers, people facing social exclusion, people with disabilities and older adults.
Most of my work has taken place in day centres, where I have led workshops on mindfulness, impulse control and personal development, as well as group therapy, all from a cognitive-behavioural perspective.
I consider myself an integrative therapist drawing on the main schools of psychotherapy, and I adapt what I know to each person and their needs. I have training in psychoanalysis, cognitive-behavioural therapy, sports psychology and DBT.
I have always believed that the driving force of psychology is helping through words, and I try to bring that value to my clinical work, which I keep nourishing with ongoing training and by updating my knowledge.
I would be glad to be part of your process of change.
