Questions we hear about Wellness & Weight Management
Walk-in?
No.
Self-esteem focus only?
Not if medical risk is present.
Do you prescribe GLP-1s?
When medically appropriate and after eating-disorder screening. Not as a cosmetic product.
Telehealth?
Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
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.
Wellness & Weight Management versus a generic template visit
We will not outperform a registered dietitian at meal planning — we will refer.
Coaching without licensure is not this page.
Punishment exercise vs graded activity.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Sleep screen.
Informed consent for off-label metabolic uses.
GLP-1: contraindication check, follow-up GI/mood.
Alcohol quantification.
Next step
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.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Wellness & Weight Management so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.

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.
