About

Dr. Anna Baranowsky is the host of the Bear Psychology show focusing on Bearing Witness to Evolving Mood, Mind, Health. The show revolves around recovery, relationships, work and life adventures. Dr. Baranowsky says "I have found that the most profound changes occur when a person truly feels heard and understood - I like to think of it as deeply BEARING WITNESS to life evolving. We can feel incredibly stuck when we live with our fears, stressors and troubles in isolation. When we share, dialogue and feel supported, it provides a powerful foundation for forward movement in understanding and care. Isn't it time for your evolution?"
