Carly Lupo, LCSW, BCN

Owner of Adaptive Mind, PLLC

The therapeutic bond is of utmost importance and providing and creating a comfortable and nurturing environment is an integral part of forming a lasting positive change. As your therapist, it is my ultimate goal to create a special space where you feel comfortable to be your true self - that’s when the healing really begins! I consider myself a support pillar - here to sit with you in the pain and help support you on your journey through healing to a successful and a balanced life. “When we sit in the moment, sit in our thoughts, senses, and feelings we learn immensely about our ability to help ourselves.” -CL
