Welcome to the Couples Therapist Couch, the podcast for couples therapists,

Hey everybody, welcome back to the couples therapist couch.
This is Shane Burkle and this is the podcast that's all about the practice of couples therapy.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist and the goal of this podcast is to help you learn how to more effectively work with couples and possibly even learn how to have a better relationship.

I want to start today with a simple but profound truth.
At our core, we are all pure love.
That might sound abstract or spiritual.
But I think it's one of the most practical truths in the world of relationships.
Before we were hurt, before we were taught how to behave,
before we learned the rules of belonging, we were just love.
If you've ever held a newborn baby, you can feel that truth.
