How can I help 16yr old DS through first break up

DS has suffered from anxiety, lack of confidence and OCD for several years. Had some counselling for OCD last year and he seemed to improve. Had a gf for a couple of months and they have just broken up and he can’t cope. It was a nasty break up and knocked his confidence but he has become so withdrawn, no interest in anything and has only just started A Levels in college and is showing no interest. He doesn’t seem to be able to cope well at all with anything like this and I feel he is spiralling into depression. Not sure what I can do to support him.
