Genetic Testing in Psychiatry: Personalized Care for Every Patient

At our practice, we understand that no two patients are alike. Genetics can influence how your body responds to medications, which is why some treatments may work well for one person but not another. Through genetic testing, we gain valuable insight into your unique biology—helping us tailor treatment plans with greater precision and effectiveness.

​

Genetic testing is a simple process, often completed with a cheek swab, that provides guidance on which medications may be most effective and best tolerated for you. While it does not provide all the answers, it can reduce the trial-and-error approach, support safer prescribing, and bring peace of mind in your treatment journey.

​

By combining the results of genetic testing with compassionate care and a holistic understanding of your needs, we aim to create a treatment plan designed specifically for you—one that helps you feel more confident, supported, and hopeful.
