Lisa Archibald (my pronouns are she/ her/ hers) moved back home to Scotland in 2020 after living and learning in New Zealand for 7 years where she supported the growth & development of their Intentional Peer Support Aotearoa NZ hub. Lisa first accessed peer support 20 years ago as a university student and has benefitted from accessing peer support to navigate a number of existential crises in the many years since. After graduating with a degree in psychology Lisa started to facilitate peer support groups then went on to manage peer services and eventually became a relationally informed trainer and co-reflector. Lisa was a UK Winston Churchill fellow in 2013 and a Yale University Let(s) LEAD fellow in 2019. She is currently an MSc Mad Studies student in Edinburgh and works part-time for IPS Central in an operational and trainer role. Lisa is a solo adult raising a teenager and a nearly teenager in the Scottish Borders, has a kiwi cat called Shadow and has been learning (slowly) Scots Gaelic for the past 3 years.
