- LCSW, LICSW
I am licensed in Florida, Alabama, and Virginia. I specialize in grief, anxiety, and attachment with special interests in applying these concepts to non-death related losses. I believe strongly that it’s an honor and privilege to walk with people on their journeys as they navigate grief and finding a light when the world feels like it has gone dark.
I have experience working with clients in variety of settings including those experiencing homelessness, veterans, perinatal populations including those experiencing pregnancy and baby loss, parents navigating children of all ages, and geriatrics.
I have experiencing working with foster and adoptive parents, biological, blended, and chosen families.
I take a strong, action-oriented approach to therapy offering education and resources alongside tools with the goal of making heavy things more manageable to carry.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Great listener and thought provoking
Megan has been great and I am happy to have been matched with has my therapist.
I’ve been working with my therapist for a few weeks now, and she has been absolutely incredible. She listens without judgment, offers thoughtful guidance, and truly cares about my progress. I’ve seen real growth in myself since starting sessions with her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and effective therapist.
Mrs. Tafolla is quick to respond and give you guidance to help you focus your thoughts. She has a direct approach that I really appreciate and a vast breadth of knowledge to ensure the most appropriate help is provided. Looking forward to working together with her to help stabilize my life, inside and out.
I am very thankful I have someone that just sits there and listen she don’t rush anything and she is very understanding
Only had one video session thus far but the communication between the worksheets and the messages is wonderful. Great resource when utilized by me.
Megan is an excellent therapist. She's kind and patient, she listens well and is very open about how own life experiences in way that relate to what I'm going through. I could not recommend her any more strongly.
I’ve been genuinely blown away by my experience with Megan! She’s been incredibly responsive, kind, and supportive—far surpassing my expectations. From the very beginning, Megan truly listened and understood what I was going through. She didn’t just offer surface-level advice—she explained the psychological and scientific reasons behind what I was experiencing, which gave me so much clarity and reassurance. It’s rare to find someone who’s both so knowledgeable and such a sweetheart. Anyone who gets matched with Megan is truly lucky!
Exactly what I needed, and responded very fast, and knew exactly what to say
