Intensive Outpatient Program in Wallingford, CT

Waterview Behavioral Health is part of the Wallingford community. Located at 300 Church Street, Suite 302, our Intensive Outpatient Program is right here โ€” no long commute, no navigating unfamiliar highways, no barrier between you and the care you need. If you live in Wallingford or the surrounding neighborhoods, you can walk in, call, or text to begin the process of getting meaningful clinical support for depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance use, or other behavioral health challenges.

As a Joint Commission-accredited program rooted in this community, Waterview was built to serve the people who live and work here. Whether youโ€™re a working professional in downtown Wallingford, a parent managing family responsibilities, or a young adult looking for structured support, our IOP is designed to fit into your life โ€” not the other way around.

Your Neighborhood IOP

Waterview offers both five-day and three-day group schedules. Schedule placement depends on clinical needs, current availability, and practical attendance considerations. Treatment may include group therapy, individual therapy, family therapy when clinically appropriate, and medication management overseen by our Medical Director, Dr. Straun, who is board-certified in General Psychiatry and Addiction Psychiatry. Because treatment is provided in Wallingford, local participants can discuss work, school, family, and transportation needs with admissions when considering whether the program is a practical fit.


Evidence-Based Clinical Care

We use evidence-based therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is a trauma-focused approach with strong research support for PTSD and anxiety โ€” and it remains uncommon in outpatient programs. Its availability at Waterview is one of the reasons individuals and clinicians throughout Connecticut choose our program.

Four Specialized Tracks

Mental Health Track โ€” For individuals living with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, and other conditions that benefit from structured outpatient support.

Chemical Dependency Track โ€” For those addressing substance use disorders with a focus on recovery skills, relapse prevention, and building a sustainable path forward.

Co-Occurring Track โ€” For individuals managing both mental health and substance use challenges simultaneously.

Mission Reset Program โ€” A specialized track for first responders, veterans, and public safety professionals.

Right Here in Wallingford

You donโ€™t need to drive 30 minutes to find a Joint Commission-accredited IOP with board-certified psychiatric oversight, EMDR, and specialized treatment tracks. Itโ€™s already in your community. Waterview Behavioral Health was built to serve Wallingford โ€” and we take that responsibility seriously. We collaborate closely with local providers, maintain the highest standards of clinical quality, and treat every person who walks through our door with the respect and attention they deserve.
