Genetic Testing

Why Consider It?


Finding the right combination of medications can often be a time-consuming and frustrating process. For example, fewer than half of patients with depression respond to their first prescribed antidepressant.

 

Genetic testing takes the guesswork out of treatment, helping you and your provider find the most effective medication options faster—potentially reducing side effects and improving outcomes.
 

What Is It?


Pharmacogenetic testing is a non-invasive saliva test that analyzes your unique genetic makeup and how it may influence your response to medications.

​

It’s especially helpful in guiding treatment for:

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • Bipolar disorder

  • Schizophrenia

  • ADHD

  • And many other mental health conditions
     

The results help identify which medications you’re more likely to respond well to, based on how your body metabolizes them—leading to better results with fewer side effects.


How It Works
 
  • A simple cheek swab

  • Test kit is mailed directly to your home

  • Easy-to-follow instructions included

  • Return the sample using prepaid shipping

  • Results typically available within 1–2 weeks

  • We’ll review the results together and develop a personalized treatment plan

 

 

Take charge of your mental health. Let your genes work for you.
