Personally, I really appreciate the help of I'm having trouble. But some people really hate it. Best to ask the person what they prefer. But more generally, something I really appreciate when talking to someone is to see that they're still listening. So many when I talk to them become visibly uncomfortable they're staring at the wall, or they start shuffling and aligning documents, or they're inspecting their tea, you know sort of thing. I get it, I really do, but that doesn't mean it does hurt any less. It means a lot when people aren't doing that, and they're still obviously interested and engaged with the conversation.
