Telling the co-worker to leave her personal problems at home is not a healthy option for emotion-focused coping. It is not empathetic or supportive and may even escalate the situation. Instead, Sarah should focus on forgiving her co-worker and increasing her own empathy to better understand and support her colleague during this difficult time. Counteracting her initial impulse to complain to the boss is also a healthy option, as it avoids creating unnecessary conflict and allows for a more compassionate approach.
