/prod01/yorksjacuk/media/content-assets/staff-profile-images/Andy-Pendle.jpg)
I am a Senior Lecturer in counselling and mental health, a practicing counsellor and coach. I came into counselling from a background in theatre and professional performance. I continue to be fascinated by how the areas of theatre practice and the talking therapies align with one another through a shared focus on introspective personal and professional development. Since 2013 I have been active in the field of coaching (executive, leadership, developmental etc.)
