Real care for Bakersfield and Kern County — from home. Joint Commission accredited virtual IOP for trauma and depression, for teens and adults.

Care that comes to you in Bakersfield & Kern County.

Dixon Behavioral Health is based in Bakersfield, and we built our virtual program because we know what local options can look like — long drives, long waitlists, and not enough trauma-specialized care. With virtual IOP, you don't have to leave Kern County to get the level of care you'd otherwise drive hours for.

  • Local roots: Dixon is Bakersfield-founded and California-licensed.
  • Skip the drive to Fresno or LA for trauma-specialized IOP.
  • Insurance credentialing in progress — including Medi-Cal and Kern Health Systems plans. Self-pay available now.
  • Evening and morning tracks built around Kern County work and school schedules.
