Psych med management includes saying no when the requested drug does not match the diagnosis.

Side-effect visits are diagnostic: we name the mechanism when we can.

Aventura FAQs for Medication Management

Can a PMHNP-BC prescribe psychiatric medication in Florida?

Yes. Dr. Chatelier is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Prescribing is within Florida APRN scope, with monitoring.

What labs do I need?

Depends on the drug: TSH, lithium level, A1c, etc. We will list them in the plan.

Where is the office for in-person med checks?

7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 20 minutes from Aventura.

What about pregnancy?

Tell us before a prescription is sent. Some agents need specialist coordination.

Will I get a refill without a visit?

Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.

Are leftover 'affordable refill' URLs a discount?

No. They are retained slugs. Billing follows insurance contracts.

Is your practice discreet for Aventura patients?

Do you address image-related anxiety and mood disorders?

Yes. We treat the full spectrum of anxiety and mood disorders, including those related to social pressure, perfectionism, and performance expectations common in high-achieving communities.
