Picture this: A coworker appears more stressed or down than usual, and it's got you concerned. You want to help, but you're not sure how to approach the situation without overstepping. Here are some gentle ways to offer support in a professional environment: - Ask (gentle) questions: Express your concern without assumptions. You might say something like: "I noticed you’ve been more quiet than usual. Is there anything going on that I can help with?" - Validate their emotions: Some people may not want a problem-solve as much as a helping ear. Try saying: “I can’t imagine how difficult that must be for you” or “I hear you” - Ask how you can help: Let your coworker know you're available to help, but respect their boundaries if they decline. - Know your limits: If a coworker is asking for more support than you can give, let them know you care about what they’re going through but try to direct them to other sources of support – like a company-sponsored mental health line, a crisis line, or an anonymous reporting system.
