Discuss mammography and cervical screening as primary-care tasks we will not skip mentioning.
Reassess at a short interval because perimenopause is not a static lab value.

Coordinate with GYN/PCP.
Deerfield Beach FAQs for Women's Hormone Therapy
Can progesterone worsen mood?
Yes in some patients. Tell us; we change the plan.
Do you do pellets?
We do not run a pellet-first model. If a GYN uses them, we still require a psychiatric formulation.
Is brain fog always menopause?
No. Sleep, ADHD, depression, B12, and thyroid are on the list.
How close is the office?
About 36 minutes from Deerfield Beach.
Do you work with my OB/GYN?
With consent.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
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.

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.
