Psychiatric metabolic management serving Broward County
Binge-eating disorder, night eating, and restriction/binge cycles need a higher-level-of-care decision sometimes. Outpatient coaching is not enough then.
Wellness & Weight Management for Coconut Creek patients
Wellness weight loss on this site means psychiatric-metabolic care, not a boot camp.
Body confidence program language in old URLs still leads to a medical visit.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Coconut Creek (Broward County) has about 58,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 32 minutes from Promenade at Coconut Creek and the Butterfly World district.
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.
Follow up; depression relapse often precedes weight relapse.
Do not start a crash diet in active eating disorder.
What we rule in — and rule out
Second opinion after a spa program.
Weight change tied to psychotropics.
OSA plus weight plus mood.
Wellness & Weight Management still needs screening.
Clinical FAQ
Sleep?
Apnea and insomnia are part of weight care.
Can I refuse weight as a goal?
Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.
Self-esteem focus only?
Not if medical risk is present.
Hormone weight loss?
Labs if indicated. Hormones are not a fat-melting SKU.
Crisis / medical instability?
ER. Especially with restriction and electrolyte risk.
Do you offer IV weight loss?
No.
Do you evaluate menopause-related mood changes?
Yes. Many Coconut Creek patients come to us specifically for the intersection of hormonal changes and mood disorders. We offer comprehensive hormone panels alongside psychiatric evaluation.
How do I get to your office from Coconut Creek?
Our Hollywood office is about 25-30 minutes via 441 or the Turnpike. First evaluations are in-person; many follow-up med checks can be done via telehealth.

How Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC practices Wellness & Weight Management
Wellness & Weight Management 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.
HIPAA-compliant records, encrypted telehealth, and a single Hollywood office at 7603 Davie Road Extension keep Wellness & Weight Management identifiable to one medical home instead of a rotating locum panel.
Visit length for new Wellness & Weight Management is typically 60–90 minutes. Follow-up length depends on risk, controlled substances, and how many variables changed since the last visit.
Schedule with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
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.
Start with one thorough Wellness & Weight Management evaluation rather than a series of 15-minute check-ins. Book at (888) 307-2199 or online.

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.
