GENETIC TESTING

At Lee & Me Psychiatry, we are proud to offer GeneSight® testing — a personalized, genetic-based approach to help guide your mental health treatment.

GeneSight® is a simple cheek swab test that analyzes how your genes may affect your body’s response to certain medications commonly used to treat conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other mental health disorders. By understanding your unique genetic makeup, our providers can make more informed decisions about which medications may work best for you and which may cause unwanted side effects.

How GeneSight® Works

  1. Quick and Easy Test – A simple cheek swab, completed in minutes during your appointment.

  2. Personalized Results – Your results help us understand how your genes may impact the effectiveness of various psychiatric medications.

  3. Tailored Treatment Plans – With this insight, your provider can create a more personalized treatment approach designed to help you feel better, faster.
