Hi Prabhjot
My son wants to learn new things but he has lot of anxiety issues, he won't co operate for more than 15 20 mins... Is there anything in OT which will specifically address how issue

Hello Sheetal
If it is purely anxiety, then the following techniques work,
1. Prepare the child for which activity he has to do. Try doing a few steps for a couple of days before asking him to complete it.
2. If it is related to homework, then take 1 subject homework at a time and reinforce if he finishes without anxiety.
3. To reduce anxiety, something to chew, less distractions while doing activity, drinking water intermittently and alternating difficult and activity of interest helps.
To further assist, check the video on steps of learning and how to handle meltdown.
