A Specialist in Pediatric Psychology Providing Virtual Care to Patients
Brennan Young enjoys helping kids overcome challenges. It was as a high school swimming instructor that Young discovered his passion. Whether it was encouraging kids to conquer a fear of water, or overcome obstacles in the classroom, Young quickly discovered that he has a knack for helping children reach their full potential.
"If given the opportunity and proper tools, children are eager to show us that they can do well," he said. "Children are part of a broader system, including family, friends, schools, and communities."
"Children do well if they can," he says, borrowing from an approach called ‘Collaborative Problem Solving.’ He said working with important adults in their lives is paramount. "I’m passionate about providing the means and the space for children to do well."
In 2017, Dr. Young transitioned his practice to telehealth. He moved with his family to Utah in order for his wife to pursue her career. However, he felt strongly connected to the people of the Chippewa Valley and northwest Wisconsin and has continued to provide services on a full-time basis.
Young nurtured a love for outdoor activities while living in Colorado during graduate school. Hiking, backpacking and skiing are among his hobbies.
Dr. Young offers virtual care services as part of his practice. Virtual visits are made through My Sanford Chart.
Not all types of care can be provided virtually. Virtual care services may be unavailable based on your location. Your insurance company can tell you more about your coverage and out-of-pocket costs for virtual care services.
