Megan Tafolla is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who focuses on grief, anxiety, and attachment, with a particular interest in non-death related losses. She approaches difficult transitions with intention and respect, viewing it as a privilege to accompany people as they seek light during dark seasons.

Megan has three years of clinical experience across a range of settings, including work with people experiencing homelessness, veterans, perinatal clients facing pregnancy and baby loss, parents of children of all ages, and older adults. Her background also includes supporting foster and adoptive parents as well as biological, blended, and chosen families as they navigate changing family dynamics.

Her practice emphasizes action-oriented care that combines education and practical resources with therapeutic tools. Megan aims to help clients carry heavy emotions in more manageable ways by teaching skills, offering guidance, and tailoring strategies to each person or family. She integrates her training in evidence-informed approaches to address relationship, parenting, caregiving, and life-change challenges while honoring each client’s story and goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action toward what matters, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by teaching practical skills for living in line with personal priorities.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating that form in close relationships and how those patterns influence emotional needs and behavior. This approach supports healing around intimacy, family dynamics, and losses connected to attachment wounds.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing concrete strategies to shift them. CBT is often used for anxiety, coping skills, and problems that benefit from structured, skills-based work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Megan works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best based on their goals, needs, and preferences. She combines education, practical tools, and client feedback to shape a tailored plan.

Online therapy offers flexibility to connect by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or care responsibilities. These options increase accessibility and allow ongoing therapeutic work to continue across life changes and different settings.
