Clinical intake for eating disorder psych eval in Weston
GeneSight is discussed when antidepressant trials have already failed — not as a souvenir test on visit one.
Psychiatric Evaluations for Weston patients
A psychiatric evaluation is a diagnostic procedure: history, mental status, risk, collateral when needed, and a differential. It is not a personality quiz.
Perinatal mood evaluation includes pregnancy, postpartum, lactation, and medication teratogenicity counseling — not a generic depression template.
Monitoring and safety in Psychiatric Evaluations
Telehealth identity and location in Florida are verified.
Informed consent is documented for off-label use when evidence supports it and alternatives were discussed.
Notes are written the same day whenever possible so the record matches the visit.
Follow-up interval tightens when a new antidepressant, antipsychotic, or mood stabilizer is started.
What we rule in — and rule out
Family history of bipolar disorder or psychosis that changes how aggressively we screen.
Eating-pattern change with medical risk (restriction, purging, electrolyte clues).
Pediatric primary care is not the focus of this clinic; adolescents are considered case-by-case.
Prior diagnoses that conflict with each other or with the current mental status exam.
How Weston patients actually get here
{access}. That access pattern is why Psychiatric Evaluations for Weston is written as a service-area page, not as a fake storefront.
ZIP 33326 is the lead postal code listed for Weston. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
After the visit you should be able to repeat the working diagnosis and the next three steps.
Opening 10 minutes: chief concern, safety, and what you want the evaluation to decide.

Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Weston patients who drive 24 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
Weston (Broward County) has about 68,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 24 minutes from Weston Town Center and the I-75 / Sawgrass Expressway interchange.
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Psychiatric Evaluations visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Side effects were labeled 'anxiety' instead of akathisia, hyponatremia, or thyroid over-replacement.
How Psychiatric Evaluations is structured
Mental status exam is documented: appearance, speech, affect, thought process, insight, cognition, and risk.
Follow-up is scheduled before you leave so the evaluation is not a one-off performance.
Safety: if risk is high, we stop the routine template and use crisis pathways.
Medical review flags thyroid, anemia, cardiac QT risk, pregnancy, and neurologic symptoms that redirect the workup.
Book Psychiatric Evaluations
If Psychiatric Evaluations 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.
After Psychiatric Evaluations is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
