Travisano Outpatient Services in Danbury is now part of McCall Behavioral Health Network, reflecting the merger of the former Central Naugatuck Valley HELP organization into McCall. The program remains at 24 Shelter Rock Road, Danbury, Connecticut, and McCall’s current location information identifies Travisano as an outpatient service site. Connecticut’s current substance-use licensing data also lists 24 Shelter Rock Road as an active facility. People looking for alcohol treatment can access a range of outpatient options while continuing to live at home.
Alcohol Treatment at Travisano
McCall describes its outpatient continuum as including traditional outpatient treatment, intensive services, medication-assisted treatment, mental health care, specialized groups, and integrative therapies. This allows clinicians to build a plan around the severity of alcohol use, co-occurring symptoms, recovery history, family or work responsibilities, and the amount of structure a person needs. Travisano also participates in McCall’s Open Access system, which can provide an initial screening and, when available, a same-day appointment slot.
Medication-assisted treatment is part of McCall’s outpatient services for people maintaining recovery from opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder. Medication is not automatically appropriate for every person with alcohol problems, so decisions are made in the context of assessment and ongoing clinical care. People with mental health needs can also receive brief treatment and individual counseling alongside addiction services, making the program relevant for co-occurring conditions.
Intensity, Recovery Support, and Safety
An important advantage of an outpatient system is the ability to adjust treatment intensity without automatically placing every patient in residential care. Someone with alcohol problems may begin with counseling or groups, while a person needing greater structure may be considered for intensive outpatient services. McCall’s broader network also offers residential treatment, so staff can help determine whether Travisano is the right setting or whether another level of care is more appropriate.
Travisano is not an emergency department or a medically monitored alcohol withdrawal unit. McCall specifically advises people in crisis to seek immediate medical attention. Individuals at risk for severe alcohol withdrawal should receive medical evaluation rather than attempting to manage withdrawal through routine outpatient appointments.
Insurance and Access
McCall states that it accepts HUSKY and most private insurance plans and offers a sliding fee scale based on income and family size. It also states that people will not be denied access to services because they cannot afford care. Patients should still verify plan-specific coverage and authorization for alcohol counseling, intensive outpatient treatment, medication services, or other care.
Travisano Outpatient Services is located at 24 Shelter Rock Road, Danbury, CT 06810. McCall currently directs people seeking Open Access services to call 860-496-2100. Callers can ask about alcohol assessment, current program availability, insurance, and the level of treatment that fits their situation.
