Hormone-informed weight care, not a detox
Binge-eating disorder, night eating, and restriction/binge cycles need a higher-level-of-care decision sometimes. Outpatient coaching is not enough then.
What Wellness & Weight Management actually includes
Hormone weight loss is a maybe after labs — not a product name.
Sleep weight wellness: apnea and insomnia are metabolic.
Indications and differentials
PMDD-related intake changes.
Depression/anxiety driving intake or inactivity.
exercise mental health still needs screening.
Weight change tied to psychotropics.
Questions we hear about Wellness & Weight Management
Can my antipsychotic stay?
Sometimes yes with monitoring; sometimes a switch is safer. That is a risk-benefit talk.
Telehealth?
Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
Walk-in?
No.
How far is the office?
20 minutes from Aventura.
Self-esteem focus only?
Not if medical risk is present.
Who is the clinician?
Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC.
Is your practice discreet for Aventura patients?
Absolutely. We maintain strict HIPAA compliance, and our telehealth option ensures complete privacy. Many Aventura patients prefer virtual appointments from their residence or office.
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.
Access from Aventura
ZIP 33160 is the lead postal code listed for Aventura. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Aventura patients who drive 20 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Wellness & Weight Management visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Depression anhedonia makes meal prep impossible; the plan ignored that.
Protocol elements we do not skip
Suicide screen — eating disorders carry risk.
Avoid dual major med changes plus a crash diet.
Refer if medically unstable restriction.
A1c/lipids/TSH as indicated.
Visit flow for Wellness & Weight Management
Diagnose psychiatric conditions that drive intake.
Stop dangerous 'wellness' products.
Labs as indicated.
Do not start a crash diet in active eating disorder.
Next step
After Wellness & Weight Management is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
Questions about insurance, labs, or whether Wellness & Weight Management can be done by video: call (888) 307-2199 before you book so the visit type matches the clinical need.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
