Applied CBT: Case Conceptualization and Treatment Planning Across Common Presentations

Applied CBT requires structured case conceptualization and treatment planning that match the presentation. This applied course teaches case-based reasoning with structured planning templates. By the end of this course you will be able to construct CBT case conceptualizations, design treatment plans for common presentations, adapt CBT for complex presentations, and monitor treatment progress structurally. What you will learn: - How to construct a longitudinal CBT case conceptualization integrating predisposing, precipitating, and maintaining factors - How to design CBT treatment plans for depression including behavioral activation focus - How to design CBT plans for anxiety disorders including exposure and cognitive components - How to adapt CBT for OCD and PTSD within evidence-based protocols - How to handle co-occurring presentations and prioritize treatment focus - How to monitor progress using outcome measures and structured reviews - How to plan for termination, relapse prevention, and follow-up The course is structured around case-based applied modules. Each module presents a clinical scenario, walks through structured conceptualization and planning, and produces a written treatment plan you compare against the worked-through example. This course is written for mental health clinicians and trainees deepening CBT practice. It does not replace supervised clinical training, scope-of-practice considerations, or licensure requirements. By the end you will have structured frameworks for CBT case conceptualization and treatment planning across common presentations.
