I’m Tiera T. Couch, LCSW, a Detroit native, therapist by day, and connoisseur of good food, art, and laughter by night. I spend my time creating when I can, binging shows when I need a break, reading to stay grounded, and enjoying good meals.
My clinical experience includes working with diverse populations across private practice, public education, and community mental health settings, in both direct practice and leadership roles. My passion for therapy is fueled by witnessing its transformative power. A healthier, more fulfilling life is possible, and therapy can be the place where that possibility becomes real, with your commitment to the process.
I created Unfcked Therapy and Wellness out of a need for a space where people, especially those who’ve been told to shrink, silence themselves, or carry it all, can show up unapologetically as they are. It’s a space for honesty, for unlearning, and for rebuilding a life that actually feels like your own. I show up as my authentic self, hoping to inspire the same in you. Together, we’ll work to unlearn harmful patterns and create a life that feels genuine. I see you as a whole person, so the therapy plan is unique to you. My approach blends evidence-informed practices with warmth, humor, and human connection. It’s an environment where you can laugh, cry, question, and grow. Whether you’re here to work through trauma, process anxiety, explore your identity, or simply feel seen and heard, this is a space where you can let your guard down.
Alongside therapy, I’m also a creative, developmental editor, writer, and facilitator. I write, curate, and lead expressive experiences and workshops that weave together storytelling, somatic practice, and creative expression. I help authors, thought leaders, and artists shape their work with feedback that’s clinically grounded, culturally informed, and trauma-aware. Creativity is the thread that ties all of my work together. Whether I’m in session, editing a manuscript, or facilitating a healing space, I believe in the transformative power of expression.
What I bring to our partnership is sincerity, commitment, and authenticity. I show up as a mirror, reflecting your strength and potential; as an ear, listening deeply to your story; and as a light bulb, helping illuminate new paths forward. You already carry what you need to heal. I’m here to help you see and activate it.
