Welcome to the Counseling Tutor Podcast.

The must listen to podcast for students of counseling and psychotherapy.

Here are your hosts, Rory Lee's Oaks and Ken Kelly.

Hello and welcome to episode 29 of the Counseling Tutor podcast.

And across the mixing studio desk is my good

friend and colleague in all things counselling mr ken callie how you doing ken i'm very well thank you

rory absolutely delighted to be here and i'm going to hit it right back at you and say how are you

today rory very well ken i have i Ken. I have a cup of tea.

Oh, you see, now this is how we differ as people and in our approaches, I guess,

because I've got a cup of coffee.

We'll have to start our own modality of beverage, aren't we?

I could be the psychodynamic tea drink and you could be the humanistic coffee supper maybe. Indeed. And we've got a great mixed bag talking about mixed drinks in the episode today. Episode 29, we're going to be starting off speaking about PTSD. That's, I guess, a topic that comes up again and again and

again. And it's not covered maybe in as much depth as it could be. And when it is covered,

there's often conflicting ideas around that. So we're going to be having a look at that.

Theory with Rory, a really interesting one today. We're going to be looking

at the theory of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Can you give us kind of a bit of a taster, Rory, of what

you're going to be sharing with us? Yeah, I'm going to be sharing a model that's taught in a lot of

counselling provision, a lot of counselling courses, called the Dabda model of loss and grief, which was pioneered by a Swiss American

psychologist called Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. I'm going to discuss it, and it's not just one that's

promoted within counselling courses, it's promoted in the healthcare profession in general.

And I'm going to tell you a little bit about its history, a little bit of how it's useful,

not just for grief, but for other losses. And also tell you a little bit about its limitations.
