OK. So I had my session today. I had nervously anticipated that my T would make me use the couch because he seemed very serious about going that direction. When I got there, I walked in, sat down in the chair, looked at him and started talking. He didn't say a word about the couch! The session went better than others. The funny thing is, now, since he didn't insist, I want to try the couch! Go figure. Thanks everyone for the responses, I appreciate it.
