I'm not sure if this is a state issue, but there shouldn't be anything stopping you from going directly to a psychologist or psychiatrist (although pediatric ones can be hard to find/extensive waiting lists). I help connect families to MH services and I usually recommend going through the PCP for ADHD because it's quicker and sidesteps an unnecessary extensive psych eval if the ADHD is obvious. Same thing for medication management.
