If you can find a point to agree on, restate it and state that you agree.
If she states something that you can't agree with, then say "I understand that you are saying .....(repeat what she says)...." Think for a minute on how if what she is saying, how she would feel, then add "I can see how that would make you feel".
The point is to really listen.
Don't get defensive.
Don't take it personally.
Don't correct or argue.
