Encourage the other person to articulate their feelings and take responsibility for their emotions by calmly stepping back when they are unable to communicate effectively. If the person becomes emotional, acknowledge their feelings but reiterate the need for clear communication and emotional responsibility. Ensure they understand the importance of taking responsibility for their emotions and problem-solving in the relationship, even if they try to make you feel guilty by passing back half of that guilt to them.
