As a volunteer with Knights of the Shed, Lisbeth brings a strong background in psychology and experience working with neurodivergent individuals. After completing Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, she is pursuing a Bachelor of Psychological Science with Honours.
For a number of years, she has worked as a Specialist Peer Mentor with the Speerment program at the University of Tasmania, where she supports university students on the autism spectrum in navigating academic and social challenges. This role has honed skills in assisting with time
management, communication, and goal-setting, tailoring support to each individual’s unique needs and strengths.
Outside of her studies and mentorship work, Lisbeth is a parent to two children, and also volunteers as a phone crisis supporter. Her passion for understanding the brain’s impact on behaviour and cognition drives her dedication to supporting neurodivergent individuals as they reach their potential in every aspect of life.
Lisbeth’s goal is to become an educational and developmental psychologist. She enjoys bush walking, listening to podcasts, and is currently rekindling playing the acoustic guitar.
