A biopsychosocial-spiritual model is a holistic approach acknowledging the interaction between physical, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of patient care and well-being. As a Polaris Institute-trained psychedelic-assisted psychotherapist, Todd has a solid foundation in various theoretical approaches and draws from psychodynamic, humanistic, existentialist, cognitive behavioral therapy, and new neuroscience research. Dr. Dickson is also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Todd works with clients so they can explore their current difficulties, personal beliefs, and values, find ways to cope and uncover the connection between past and present experiences. Todd gives his full attention to a safe place to express emotions, and his knowledge and experience give his patients as much support as possible.
