Clinical scope of Psychiatric Evaluations in Broward County
Psychosis evaluation treats hallucinations, delusions, and disorganization as time-sensitive. Substance-induced and mood-with-psychosis are on the differential.
Initial consults at this clinic are scheduled as 60–90 minutes because a 20-minute slot cannot hold a reliable differential.
DSM-5-TR framing for book psych evaluation
A request for a second opinion before a major medication change or a disability form.
Substance use that may be inducing or masking a primary psychiatric disorder.
Family history of bipolar disorder or psychosis that changes how aggressively we screen.
Out-of-state patients cannot complete a Florida telehealth evaluation while physically outside Florida.

Dania Beach FAQs for Psychiatric Evaluations
Can I use this evaluation for a legal letter?
Only if the interview actually supports the opinion. We do not write unsupported letters.
Do you accept insurance?
Most major plans are accepted; verify benefits before the visit. Coverage is not a clinical promise.
Where is the office?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 10 minutes from Dania Beach.
Will you prescribe on visit one?
Only when the diagnosis, safety, and monitoring plan support it. Controlled substances have a higher bar.
How do I prepare?
Medication list, prior psych notes, recent labs, and a timeline of symptoms. Sleep and menstrual data help.
Is this a psychiatrist (MD/DO)?
Care is provided by Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC — a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. She diagnoses and prescribes within Florida APRN scope. She is not an MD psychiatrist.
