22 year old with complex dual disability

This young man suffers from high anxiety and experiences anxiety attacks regularly.

Due to his dual disability he is unable to engage in traditional mindfulness strategies/activities to de-escalate and or reduce symptoms of anxiety that he experiences.

During one of the psychological assessments it became quiet apparent that his strength lies in solving very complex brain teasers. He is amazing at it and will work on it until he gets it done, which he does impressively fast. While he is engaging in solving those sometimes "impossible" puzzles he is so engaged in the activity that he is not thinking about the issues that are causing him severe anxiety. This young man will often believe that he is having heart attack due to symptoms of his anxiety and will present at the emergency department.

We want to build up on his strengths and use that to help him manage his anxiety symptoms.
