What about actually saying to her: "I don't want to focus on this negativity anymore in our calls. It's not good for my stress levels. Happy to talk about other things, but I can't talk about work anymore for my own mental health."

Or something to that effect? I have had to say that to friend/co-workers before (something nice and polite to that effect) to cut off ranting/venting.
