Perimenopause psychiatry serving Broward County
We order labs when the history of Women's Hormone Therapy suggests endocrine contribution. We do not diagnose menopause from a mood adjective.
Clinical scope of Women's Hormone Therapy in Broward County
Women's HRT in this clinic is hormone-informed psychiatry, not a med-spa catalog.
Top-rated language is ignored. Risk counseling is the product.
Hollywood FAQs for Women's Hormone Therapy
What about breast cancer risk?
We discuss it. Personal history may require oncology/GYN before estrogen.
Do you prescribe HRT?
When indicated after history, labs, and risk counseling, and often in coordination with GYN. This is not a pellet mill.
Will you check thyroid?
Yes when the history fits. Fatigue and mood are not 'just estrogen' by default.
Can progesterone worsen mood?
Yes in some patients. Tell us; we change the plan.
Are you a gynecologist?
No. Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC is a PMHNP-BC providing hormone-informed psychiatric care.
Is this anti-aging?
No.
Where is your Hollywood office?
Our office is located at 7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024. We're easily accessible from I-95, the Turnpike, and US-441.
Do you serve Hollywood Beach residents?
Yes! We serve all Hollywood neighborhoods including Hollywood Beach, Hollywood Hills, Emerald Hills, and surrounding areas.
From intake to follow-up: Women's Hormone Therapy
Discuss mammography and cervical screening as primary-care tasks we will not skip mentioning.
Review contraindications to estrogen.
Complete psychiatric evaluation standards (safety, bipolar screen, substances).
Telehealth for counseling; office or GYN for procedures.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Women's Hormone Therapy visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
{access}. That access pattern is why Women's Hormone Therapy for Hollywood is written as a service-area page, not as a fake storefront.
Refer to emergency care for postpartum psychosis or severe SI.
Order labs that could change the plan.
Evidence we actually use
When Women's Hormone Therapy 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.
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 Women's Hormone Therapy rather than treating it as an afterthought.
Visit length for new Women's Hormone Therapy is typically 60–90 minutes. Follow-up length depends on risk, controlled substances, and how many variables changed since the last visit.
What we rule in — and rule out
PMDD meeting diagnostic timing.
Contraindication counseling itself can be the visit goal.
Not indicated as sole treatment of bipolar I mania.
Postpartum mood or anxiety needing medical evaluation.
Monitoring and safety in Women's Hormone Therapy
Bipolar screen before unopposed-feeling antidepressant plans.
Refer DEXA when premature estrogen loss.
Drug-interaction check with psychotropics.
Bleeding on HRT = GYN, not 'watch forever.'

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.
