The Virtual Couch show

Summary: Back in 1995, PhD and Marriage Therapist Gary Chapman released a book called "The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate." In the book, Chapman outlines five ways to express and experience love. He calls these "love languages." These 5 love languages are: receiving gifts, quality time, words of affirmation, acts of service (devotion), and physical touch. For many couples, reading about, and discovering, their partners love language (and their own) is one of the first steps toward trying to repair a damaged relationship. For newlyweds, this can be a very important foundational principal for a healthy marriage. In this episode, Tony explores each one of the love languages as well as how understanding them can benefit you, and your partner.
