GLP-1 questions inside a psychiatric chart
Binge-eating disorder, night eating, and restriction/binge cycles need a higher-level-of-care decision sometimes. Outpatient coaching is not enough then.
Clinical scope of Wellness & Weight Management in Broward County
Holistic weight care means whole-person, not unregulated.
Body confidence program language in old URLs still leads to a medical visit.
Questions we hear about Wellness & Weight Management
Can I refuse weight as a goal?
Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.
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.
Exercise?
Dosed. Not a punishment.
Crisis / medical instability?
ER. Especially with restriction and electrolyte risk.
Affordable coaching URL?
Retained slug. This is not cheap coaching.
Can I do all appointments via telehealth?
After an initial evaluation (which we recommend in-person for the most thorough assessment), most follow-up appointments can be conducted via our secure telehealth platform.
How do you ensure privacy?
All appointments and records are HIPAA-compliant. Telehealth sessions use encrypted video, and we never share patient information without explicit consent.
Access from Hillsboro Beach
Hillsboro Beach (Broward County) has about 2,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 36 minutes from Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse and Millionaire Mile.
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.
Neighborhoods we hear from most in Hillsboro Beach include The barrier-island residential strip along A1A. ZIP codes 33062 map to this service-area page.
Exercise was prescribed as moral atonement.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Do not display before/after marketing in clinic.
Medication list vs weight curve.
Informed consent for off-label metabolic uses.
Alcohol quantification.
What we rule in — and rule out
Body image distress with medical risk.
OSA plus weight plus mood.
Postpartum weight plus depression.
Not indicated as IV slimming.
From intake to follow-up: Wellness & Weight Management
Labs as indicated.
Sleep, shift work, and Hillsboro Beach food access.
Screen restriction, binge, purge, laxatives.
Do not start a crash diet in active eating disorder.
Schedule with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
After Wellness & Weight Management is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
Crisis now is 988 or the ER — not the booking form. For non-urgent Wellness & Weight Management, use (888) 307-2199 during weekday hours.

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.
