Jill Lubienski

Highly Specialist Systemic Psychotherapist & Registered Social Worker

Senior Clinician, Supervisor and Trainer 

NVR Association (NVRA) Accredited Practitioner and Supervisor

Jill has been working with families for over 35 years as a social worker and as a systemic psychotherapist. Her experience spans a range of settings from local authority children’s services, adoption, parenting and family support, and most extensively in multi-disciplinary core CAMHS teams. More recently she took a specialist role in an intensive community support team within CAMHS working alongside other professionals to keep young people with serious mental health issues out of hospital. Within this team, Jill provided a lead role in family-based treatment for young people experiencing an eating disorder. Jill then moved to work as a lead family therapist in a transition team supporting young people with an enduring eating disorder in their transition from CAMHS to adult mental health services.

Jill has found NVR methods and principles invaluable in this work and, along with her colleague Shila Desai, has helped to develop bespoke training and interventions in applying NVR to eating disorders.
