Hi there,


I?m new to the lounge but have used the East Dulwich forum over the years to both offer my unwanted items and get recommendations for local services. I?ve now got a more unusual request (this has been given the all clear by admin by the way).


I am a couple?s counsellor with over 10 years experience and I?m currently doing research into the decline of vitality in long term relationships.


The feeling that a relationship has ?lost its spark? is a common experience that many committed couples live with yet there are no coherent strategies for counsellors who come across this type of issue. The purpose of this research is to further understanding in this area and contribute to the effectiveness of couple therapy.


I am looking for couples who are interested in taking part in this study. Participants will have been together for at least 5 years and not currently in counselling. Their relationship will be stable yet they both feel that they have lost the ?spark? between them. This study will also be looking at gender differences therefore I am seeking heterosexual couples.


I wish to emphasise that I am not looking for ?experts? on the topic. You will be treated with respect, and not judged or personally analysed in any way. The identity of participants will only be known by me and all steps will be taken to ensure your anonymity.


What will your participation involve?

You will be invited to take part in a one-to-one 60 minute interview that will take place in a quiet and private room at a local health centre in Crystal Palace or possibly in your own home.


My research has been approved by the School of Psychology Research Ethics Committee. This means that my research follows the standard of research ethics set by the British Psychological Society.


If you or a couple that you know are interested in more details please PM me.


Many Thanks

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By ak0910 · Posted

      Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.

      When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
