Mr Steven Ricou

Counselor

“An experienced practitioner working with adults and young adults with an integrative approach to therapy.”

About Me

As an experienced counsellor, this practitioner works with adults and young adults, offering an integrative approach. Sessions are carefully adapted to your unique needs, allowing you to explore challenges in a way that truly fits. Clients seeking flexible, tailored support will find a collaborative space. Here, you can gain clarity and discover new ways forward, addressing a wide range of concerns.

Approach

I shape sessions around your priorities, combining practical tools with reflective space so patterns linked to loss, addiction or relationship strain can be noticed and shifted. Whether we meet in Jersey or online, in English, I keep sessions steady and grounded—clear steps, gentle challenge, and agreed actions between meetings when helpful. Work often weaves emotional processing with behaviour-focused experiments, safety planning after abuse, and identity-affirming exploration for LGBTQI+ clients, with concise summaries to carry forward. People wanting collaborative, straightforward support tend to find this helpful.
