Clinical intake for Psychiatric Evaluations in Miramar
Insurance verification happens before the visit so the evaluation itself is clinical time.
Clinical scope of Psychiatric Evaluations in Broward County
Hormone-mood assessment reviews estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, and cortisol clues without claiming every mood symptom is endocrine.
Functional psychiatric evaluation adds labs and metabolic context to the psychiatric interview. Labs do not license skipping DSM-5-TR criteria.

How Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC practices Psychiatric Evaluations
The practice is women-owned and Haitian-led. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC documents cultural context — including stigma in Caribbean and Latin American families — during Psychiatric Evaluations rather than treating it as an afterthought.
When Psychiatric Evaluations overlaps with psychotherapy needs, the practice coordinates with therapists rather than replacing weekly therapy. Medication and psychotherapy have different mechanisms and both may be indicated.
Visit length for new Psychiatric Evaluations is typically 60–90 minutes. Follow-up length depends on risk, controlled substances, and how many variables changed since the last visit.
Questions we hear about Psychiatric Evaluations
Do you diagnose on the first visit?
Usually we can state a working diagnosis and differential after the first complete interview. Some presentations need collateral, labs, or a second visit.
Do you see children?
The practice is primarily adults and older adolescents, considered case-by-case.
Where is the office?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 16 minutes from Miramar.
Do you accept insurance?
Most major plans are accepted; verify benefits before the visit. Coverage is not a clinical promise.
What if I am in crisis?
Call 988 or go to an emergency department. This clinic is not an after-hours crisis line.
What labs might you order?
Hypothesis-driven: TSH with free T4, ferritin, vitamin D, B12, folate, CBC, CMP, and selected hormones. Not every patient needs every test.
Do you understand Caribbean mental health perspectives?
Yes. Dr. Chatelier is Haitian-American and deeply understands the cultural nuances that affect mental health care in Caribbean communities. We provide culturally sensitive psychiatric treatment.
