Wellness consults that still use DSM-5-TR when an eating disorder is present
SGAs and some antidepressants cause weight gain. We name that and discuss switches or metformin/GLP-1 only when appropriate.
Wellness & Weight Management for Miramar patients
Nutrition psych weight is the overlap of intake patterns and DSM-5-TR diagnoses.
Mental health weight programs have to diagnose binge-eating and depression, not just count almonds.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Miramar patients who drive 16 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Miramar presentations. Wellness & Weight Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Safety if BMI or vitals are unsafe.
Document GLP-1 risks if used.
Questions we hear about Wellness & Weight Management
Is this a weight-loss spa?
No. It is psychiatric and metabolic overlap care.
Exercise?
Dosed. Not a punishment.
Can I refuse weight as a goal?
Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.
Telehealth?
Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
Can my antipsychotic stay?
Sometimes yes with monitoring; sometimes a switch is safer. That is a risk-benefit talk.
Will you weigh me every visit?
Only if it is clinically useful and not harmful to your eating-disorder recovery.
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.
Is your office accessible from Miramar?
