My T has a psychoanalytic orientation and is trained in Psychoanalysis too. Whenever I go and sit on the couch, I wonder if he has other clients who do. I always sit facing him. I think I would feel too vulnerable laying down. Plus I like looking at him and need the reassurance a simple gesture or a smile offers.
