The Couch Comic is a comedy, speaking, and entertainment platform operated by Peak Counseling Services LLC. Although Marinda Peak is a licensed mental health professional, this website is not intended to provide counseling, psychotherapy, mental health treatment, or crisis services.

​

Visiting this website, submitting an inquiry or form, subscribing to communications, or otherwise contacting The Couch Comic does not establish a therapist-client relationship with Marinda Peak or Peak Counseling Services LLC.
