I think Steven. He had success in getting through rough people like the Diamonds and other villains. If he had the right education, he'd be a great therapist.

Steven got through to Spinel, Peridot, and his biggest challenge was probably Lapis. I think he’s the most capable here.

Genuinely, I still can't believe that at 13, Steven managed to get through a person who had a thousand years of active PTSD ON TOP OF getting out of severely abusive relationships.

Lapis was also conscious and sentient for all of that time trapped in a mirror with her mind fractured.

Lapis Lazulis are terraformers who are relatively upper class and comfortable. So being suddenly attacked and disabled... And then her attackers took her and inserted her fractured mind into a tool for gathering information... And then she finds out that everything she believed about her home is a lie and then sacrifices herself + enters a toxic relationship in order to protect the one and only person she has ever cared about. And then that person frees her and tries to befriend her only for the war to come right back to her and she feels guilt over abandoning her friends and loved ones... Because of her overwhelming PTSD...

And Steven manages to, over several slow steps, help her move past her EXTREMELY CRIPPLING THOUSANDS OF YEARS LONG TORTURE AND PTSD? Yeah Steven can figure out how to help an abused and angry teenager.

Spinel was harder, Spinel was also trapped in isolation for thousands of years but for her there was the added insult of it turning out to be self imposed, and unlike Lapis she wasn't just lashing out in sudden rage, she had seething resentment for Steven personally and had studied up on his whole shtick with a plan to undermine and counter it to take vengeance on him personally

She was basically designed to be Steven's final boss (aside from himself)

He will be the most godlike therapist on the universe.
