About Megan
Megan Tafolla is a licensed clinical social worker with three years of practice experience. She focuses on grief, anxiety, attachment, and related concerns. She frames therapy as a shared journey and aims to help people find small ways forward when life feels overwhelming.
Her background includes work across several settings. She has supported people affected by homelessness, veterans, and perinatal challenges including pregnancy and baby loss. She has also worked with parents caring for children of different ages and with older adults facing aging concerns.
Megan has particular experience supporting foster and adoptive parents as well as people in blended or chosen families. She often helps clients process non-death losses, such as changes in identity, role, or relationship. She names abandonment and attachment issues as areas she addresses alongside family of origin concerns.
Her approach is practical and action-oriented. She offers education, tools, and resources aimed at making heavy things easier to carry. She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused work, client-centered practice, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and elements of the Gottman Method.
Megan also supports people dealing with parenting stress, career questions, compassion fatigue, ADHD, chronic illness or pain, and communication problems. She invites clients to try out different strategies in session and then adapt what works to everyday life.
To get started she asks people to share what feels most urgent and what small goal would feel meaningful first. Sessions focus on clear steps and skills people can use between meetings.
How therapy approaches shape online work
Megan draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward those values, even when feelings are difficult. This approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and grief when the goal is clearer action rather than getting stuck trying to eliminate emotions.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. That work focuses on building awareness of relational habits and practicing new ways of connecting, which can help with intimacy issues and family of origin concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Megan will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust what isn’t helpful. That way, therapy stays practical and responsive to changing circumstances.
If you’re considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow people to schedule check-ins around work or caregiving. Some formats can also let people do shorter check-ins when needed or avoid being on camera if that helps them focus. Ask about available session formats while you schedule to find what best fits your routine.
