Ah, the classic 'increase the duration' option. Because nothing says 'coping with stress' like an extra hour of burpees and squats, am I right?

Make a future appointment to discuss the divorce? What is this, a therapy session? I think the client just needs a little more empathy and support, not another appointment to talk about her personal life.

Increasing the number of sessions? Really? That's just going to add more stress and financial burden on her. She needs professional help, not more time in the gym.

Recommend that she seek a mental health professional? Well, duh! That's the most appropriate action to take. I mean, as a personal trainer, my job is to help with physical fitness, not mental health issues.
