Audrey is suffering from depression that was triggered by a breakup with her boyfriend. She tells her therapist that no man will ever love her. Her therapist challenges the validity of her belief by stating that just because one person broke up with her doesn't mean that all of her relationships will fail. The therapist then has Audrey make a list of all the guys she knows who would probably go out with her on a date. To her surprise, Audrey is able to name a handful and realizes that her belief that no one will love her probably is distorted by the emotional pain from her breakup. Audrey's therapist is using:

cognitive restructuring

Explanation:

Based on the scenario that is being described it seems that Audrey's therapist is using cognitive restructuring. This is a psychotherapeutic process of learning to identify and dispute irrational or maladaptive thoughts known as cognitive distortions. There are many such distortions like all-or-nothing thinking (splitting), magical thinking, over-generalization, magnification, and emotional reasoning, which are commonly associated. In this case, Audrey's belief is a form of over-generalization since she believes that since one man can't love her no person can.
