Has one attempted to start in Safe Mode - Shift key immediately at restart and hold until the Apple Logo appears then, release.

Safe mode will do a Repair Disk, clear cache files and Eliminate Third Party Software, extension and fonts from loading.

If the original issue still occurs >>

1 - There is a Lack of Empty Space on the drive and not even the Safe Mode can load. Possible solution - Transfer files between two Mac computers using target disk mode
