GeneSight® Psychotropic is a pharmacogenomic test that examines how your genetic makeup may affect your response to certain mental health medications. The results provide additional information that can help your provider make more informed decisions about medication selection and dosing.
Testing may be considered when a medication has not provided the expected relief, has caused unwanted side effects, or when finding the right treatment has been challenging.
GeneSight testing uses a quick and painless cheek swab to collect a small DNA sample. The sample is analyzed by a laboratory, and your provider receives a personalized report showing possible gene–medication interactions.
Your results are reviewed alongside your symptoms, medical history, current medications, previous treatment experiences, and individual care needs
You have tried one or more mental health medications without receiving the expected benefits.
You and your provider are exploring different medication or dosing options.
You want additional genetic information to support conversations about your medication plan.
Wonderful experience. Nikka was attentive, patient with my teen, and provided thoughtful, valuable feedback throughout the appointment.
Great bedside manner and truly personalized care. My medication was adjusted based on my needs, and I felt comfortable scheduling a follow-up
Nikka is a great listener. She took the time to fully understand my concerns and helped me find the medication support I needed.
Mrs. Jones has a kind and patient approach. I never felt rushed, and she made sure I understood how she could support me.
If your current mental health medication is not providing the expected results or is causing unwanted side effects, GeneSight testing may offer helpful information. Trinity Psych Wellness can help determine whether testing is appropriate for you and explain how the results may support your treatment plan.
