He does have a few cushions. They don't strike me as firm, but maybe I can figure out how to use them to make myself more comfortable. He's got a similar, but larger, couch in his other office, and I make a point of wearing shoes I can take off when I meet him there. It's so much easier to just take off my shoes and sit crosslegged on the couch than it is to work out the ergonomic challenge. But that would be awkward on a more regular basis.
It's amazing what psychological overtones a piece of furniture can take on. For all I think of myself as being comfortable with him, that comfort definitely involves some firmness and distance.
How are you doing without your therapist? Any tugs to see her? Or a sense of relief?
