Cynthia Anne Hale, Ph.D., LCSW.  As an educator, writer, and psychotherapist, Cynthia Anne Hale explores the often-unconscious connections between inner and outer experiences. In her 2014 book, The Red Place: Transforming Past Traumas through Relationships, she challenges professional and lay readers alike to more consciously consider the relational implications of traumatic experience. She is currently researching how children absorb cultural traumas and express this impact in their life attitudes and resilience.

With over twenty-five years of clinical experience, Dr. Hale maintains a private psychotherapy practice based in Carpinteria, California, where she serves the professional development of other therapists through depth-oriented consultation and dream groups that utilize embodied imagination. She incorporates telehealth into her clinical practice and is a popular presenter for Jungian training institutes and groups in England and the U.S.
