CBPT BASIC THEORETICAL MODEL
Learn the basic features of Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy
About CBPT Basic Theoretical Model course
Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy (CBPT) is an evolutionarily sensitive adaptation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT is an established treatment for adolescents and adults, aimed at changing the negative thought patterns that cause negative emotions and maladaptive behaviors. CBPT is designed specifically for children between the ages of 2½ and 8 and emphasizes the use of play to provide effective CBT strategies. Since play is a natural process in young children, the child is able to actively participate in the acquisition of strategies. Therefore, the techniques can be taught and communicated in an engaging and accessible way. Modeling is often used to communicate interventions, but other methods are also used. A wide range of cognitive and behavioral intervention methods are included in the treatment. CBPT teaches the generalization of learned adaptive behaviors to other contexts and incorporates relapse prevention techniques. Overall, the treatment is both structured and unstructured, which allows for a balance between active collaboration and spontaneous learning. Similarities and differences between the game’s various therapeutic approaches will be explored. Many case examples will be used to demonstrate both the implementation and effectiveness of CBPT. Relevant research will be presented. All of this will be presented in four separate lessons.
