WHY COZY COUCH COUNSELING?

From an early age, I was captivated by psychology, counseling, and the profound impact of human connection. I remember watching movies where someone would lay on a therapist’s couch, pouring out their deepest fears and emotions. That couch fascinated me—why did people feel safe enough to share their most vulnerable thoughts with a stranger? Years later, after more than a decade in the counseling field, I explored the deeper meaning behind this seemingly simple piece of furniture.

The therapist’s couch has roots in the early 20th century when Sigmund Freud introduced psychoanalysis. He believed that the unconscious mind holds the key to our struggles and that true healing begins when we speak freely—without fear, without judgment. The couch became a symbol of comfort, a place where people could release their burdens and uncover deeper insights about themselves.

That sense of safety and openness is what I strive to create in my practice. I want every client to feel truly seen, heard, and understood. Therapy should be a space where you can explore your thoughts, untangle emotions, and rediscover your strength. This belief inspired the name of my practice, Cozy Couch Counseling—a place where healing begins in an atmosphere of warmth, support, and meaningful self-discovery.
