CBPT Theoretical Pack — 2-course certified training by Knell & Dasari
A structured pathway through the CBPT model — from its theoretical foundations to case conceptualization, the basis of evidence-based, individualized treatment.
What you will be able to do
The theory tells you that CBPT delivers CBT indirectly through play. It doesn't tell you what to do when a 4-year-old with anxious attachment and low frustration tolerance walks in. That's where the case conceptualization takes over — mapping the individual variables that determine which interventions you use, in what order, at what pace. This bundle gives you the framework and the map: theory that becomes clinical decision-making.
A shared foundation for every clinician on your team, from framework to first case.
About this course
The CBPT Theoretical Pack combines two essential foundational courses: the Basic Theoretical Model and Case Conceptualization. Together, they provide the complete theoretical and assessment foundation for evidence-based CBPT practice.
This bundle is ideal for clinicians beginning their CBPT training or seeking to deepen their understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of the method before moving to clinical applications.
Course objectives
- Understand the theoretical foundations and empirical basis of CBPT
- Apply the case conceptualization framework to child clients
- Use the Children's Case Conceptualization Worksheet
- Differentiate CBPT from other child therapy approaches
Course requirements

Frequently asked questions
Which courses are included in the CBPT Theoretical Pack?
Two courses: Basic Theoretical Model and Case Conceptualization, for a total of 3h 30min of teaching. They are taught by Susan M. Knell, Ph.D. and Meena Dasari, Ph.D. Together they form the theoretical and assessment foundation of the method.
What does case conceptualization mean in CBPT?
It is the step where the clinician maps the individual variables of one child: attachment style, temperament, developmental level, emerging organizing beliefs and environmental factors. Those variables then determine which interventions are used, in what order and at what pace. The course works through the Children's Case Conceptualization Worksheet.
Is the bundle cheaper than buying the two courses separately?
Yes. The two courses bought separately are listed at $220, while the pack is $100 + VAT. Both courses keep lifetime access and the certificate of attestation.
Is this the right starting point for a clinician new to CBPT?
It is designed as the entry point: the theoretical framework and the conceptualization method come before the clinical application courses. Clinicians who already have the foundations usually move directly to the clinical applications or to the second-level programme.
What do participants receive at the end?
A learning test closes the pathway, and a certificate of attestation is issued by the CBPT Research Center once the professional requirements are verified. Access to the material remains available without a time limit, and a 30-day money-back guarantee applies.
