Counselors can help chronically lonely people through

A) social skills training.
B) cognitive therapy.
C) both social skills and cognitive therapy.
D) attributional adjustment therapy.

Chronically lonely people may struggle with both social skills and negative thought patterns, so utilizing both social skills training and cognitive therapy would provide a comprehensive approach to addressing their loneliness. Attributional adjustment therapy is a specific type of cognitive therapy focused on changing negative thought patterns about oneself and others, but it is not the only type of cognitive therapy that could be used to help chronically lonely individuals.
