Welcome to the Psychologist Altea page!

You probably haven’t landed here by chance, so let me get straight to the point. We live in complex times, where changes occur at great speed; an era in which feelings of insecurity, stress and fear are more the rule than the exception. Many people suffer from stress, whether in their relationships, at work, in how they interact with the outside world, or when processing a complicated past.

The good news is: you are not alone.

Psychologist Altea: Many people experience some form of psychological pressure or emotional difficulties. Maybe you have been carrying something with you for a long time that holds you back. An addiction you cannot free yourself from, tensions in your relationship, sexual issues, questions of gender, a fear or phobia that makes your life smaller. You may also be going through grief, loneliness, or the feeling of not being able to accept your own body.
It may also be something less tangible: feelings of sadness, repetitive patterns that play out again and again, or a burden from your family system that you carry without being fully aware of it.
If you recognize yourself in this, remember: you don’t have to face it alone.

Psychologist Altea, let’s start taking steps

My name is Javi Mateo, psychologist, and I support people who want to transform their problems into opportunities. My approach combines different perspectives and techniques:

• Positive Psychology, to strengthen your resilience and inner resources.
• Systemic therapy, to uncover the invisible family patterns that still influence you today.
• The wisdom of Jung, which helps you better understand your inner world.
• And elements of Bioneuroemotion, an innovative method within positive psychology that facilitates releasing old emotions and changing your perspective.

I invite you to embark on this journey with me. Your problems are not only a burden, but also a challenge that asks for a solution. Together, we can explore where the roots lie and gradually make room for change, inner calm, personal growth, and a more fulfilling life.

Every situation carries a package of emotions to be deciphered

Psychologist Altea: I firmly believe that working on personal growth is essential. This begins with understanding our own mental patterns, tending to our emotions, and allowing ourselves to feel pain instead of repressing it.
By recognizing our irrational or limiting beliefs and understanding how our unconscious works, we can change the way we perceive. This helps us to reframe our memories, our pain, and our sense of lack. In short, it’s about improving our mental health: that is the main goal.
And in our relationship with a complex world, developing and strengthening emotional intelligence is indispensable.
