Metabolic testing
Explore physical factors that may inform your mental health care, in conversation with your clinical team.
When physical health affects mental health
Our metabolic testing looks for medical factors that can contribute to mental health symptoms, so your clinical team can see the fuller picture alongside symptom management.
Who benefits?
You may benefit if you:
- Have depression or anxiety that has not responded to treatment
- Experience unexplained fatigue or brain fog
- Have medications that haven’t worked as expected
- Want to understand the full picture of your health
- Take psychiatric medications that require monitoring

Why this matters
Identifying a physical contributor helps your clinician:
- Make more informed treatment decisions
- Plan timely, targeted treatment
- Consider whether medication needs or side effects can be reduced
- Help prevent longer-term health complications
When an underlying physical issue is found and treated, your clinician reviews your plan with you, which may include changes to medication.
