Deerfield Beach FAQs for Wellness & Weight Management
Walk-in?
No.
Affordable coaching URL?
Retained slug. This is not cheap coaching.
Is binge-eating an eating disorder?
Binge-eating disorder is a DSM-5-TR diagnosis. We screen for it.
Is this a weight-loss spa?
No. It is psychiatric and metabolic overlap care.
Do you prescribe GLP-1s?
When medically appropriate and after eating-disorder screening. Not as a cosmetic product.
Do you offer IV weight loss?
No.
Can seasonal residents establish psychiatric care with you?
Yes. We offer initial evaluations for seasonal visitors and can continue care via telehealth when patients return to their home state, subject to licensing requirements.
Do you treat depression related to isolation?
Absolutely. Isolation-related depression is common in coastal communities, especially among retirees and seasonal residents. Our evaluations identify contributing factors including hormonal changes and social disconnection.
What we rule in — and rule out
Not indicated to treat anorexia with a GLP-1.
OSA plus weight plus mood.
Postpartum weight plus depression.
Depression/anxiety driving intake or inactivity.
From intake to follow-up: Wellness & Weight Management
Stop dangerous 'wellness' products.
Diagnose psychiatric conditions that drive intake.
Set behavior metrics, not only pounds.
Refer out when the case is primarily endocrine or bariatric.
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.
If Wellness & Weight Management is the right next step, schedule a 60–90 minute intake with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC. Same-week telehealth follow-ups are used after the diagnostic visit when clinically appropriate.
