Hormone-informed weight care, not a detox
Exercise is dosed like a treatment, not a punishment for eating.
What Wellness & Weight Management actually includes
Stress eating and emotional eating still get a differential (binge-eating disorder vs situational).
Hormone weight loss is a maybe after labs — not a product name.
Parking, hours, and video visits
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.
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Hallandale Beach presentations. Wellness & Weight Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Decide: therapy, dietitian, med switch, anti-obesity med, or higher care.
Sleep, shift work, and Hallandale Beach food access.

Questions we hear about Wellness & Weight Management
Insurance?
Verify. Metabolic meds and visits have different coverage rules.
Is this a weight-loss spa?
No. It is psychiatric and metabolic overlap care.
Can I refuse weight as a goal?
Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.
Do you offer IV weight loss?
No.
Self-esteem focus only?
Not if medical risk is present.
Exercise?
Dosed. Not a punishment.
How close is Hallandale Beach to your office?
Our Hollywood office is only about 10 minutes from Hallandale Beach via US-1 or I-95. We're very convenient for Hallandale residents.
Do you work with patients from diverse cultural backgrounds?
Yes. Our practice serves South Florida's diverse communities with culturally aware psychiatric care. Dr. Chatelier's multicultural background informs her compassionate, evidence-based approach.

Book Wellness & Weight Management
Crisis now is 988 or the ER — not the booking form. For non-urgent Wellness & Weight Management, use (888) 307-2199 during weekday hours.
After Wellness & Weight Management is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
