The only technique I know of deals with anxiety. Have the person experiencing anxiety sit down and sit down next to that person directly facing him or her. Look at that person and have that person look at you. Tell that person to breathe with you Take deep, slow breaths.

I have never practiced this technique. This was taught at the Citizen's Fire Academy.
