About
I work with patients who have questions or concerns about vaccines by using evidence-based counseling techniques and motivational interviewing to help you understand your immunization options. I specialize in creating personalized vaccination plans for adults, children, and immunocompromised patients, addressing vaccine hesitancy through open dialogue and clear information about disease prevention. My telehealth appointments are designed to give you the time and space to make informed decisions about your family's immunization schedule.
Services offered
I provide comprehensive telehealth vaccine counseling for patients of all ages, including routine childhood immunizations, adult vaccination schedules, travel medicine vaccines, and specialized guidance for immunocompromised patients. During our secure video or phone sessions, I review your personal and family medical history, discuss any vaccine concerns or hesitations you may have, and explain how vaccines prevent serious diseases like measles, HPV-related cancers, shingles, pneumonia, and COVID-19. I use motivational interviewing techniques to address barriers to vaccination and help you understand the science behind vaccine safety and effectiveness. Whether you're a parent weighing childhood vaccine options, an adult needing catch-up immunizations, or someone with specific health conditions affecting your vaccine eligibility, I work collaboratively to develop an immunization plan that fits your health needs and values.
