Telehealth Psychiatry at Peace & Heart Wellness is directed by Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC, a Florida-licensed psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with more than a decade of hormone-informed psychiatric practice. Care is hormone-informed and lab-aware rather than checklist-only.

Questions we hear about Telehealth Psychiatry
Will you see me in a parked car?
Only if it is private, stationary, and clinically appropriate. Driving is a no.
What if I travel to Georgia?
We cannot see you by telehealth while you are outside Florida.
Is it encrypted?
Yes. Still avoid public Wi-Fi.
Do you prescribe Adderall by video?
Only if the evaluation and PDMP support it, and policy allows. Not as a first-click product.
Do I have to be in Florida?
Yes, at the time of the visit.
Can you send meds to my pharmacy?
Yes, a Florida pharmacy you designate.
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.
