How can I help him and still give him space and time? Can we create an arrangement that suits us, like seeing each other maybe once a week until he can get his head clear?

Maybe he will agree to seeing you at least once a week.
Unfortunately the ball is in his court and he is the one requesting the space and time. Have you asked him why he feels he needs this? Have you had alot of problems or pressures in the relationship recently?
Sometimes people want space and time to feel that they have some independence. Or its because they are confused about something else.
Give him what he wants with no pressure and let him have a taste of you not being there for him..hopefully he will come to his senses and realise what he is missing.
Good Luck!
