For Referrers & Professionals
A practical set of resources for colleagues who send people our way. You'll find information on what our assessments involve, what to tell families before a first appointment, and how our referral process works. If you've got a complex one and want to talk it through beforehand, our number is on the contact page.
Understanding ADHD Pathways
ADHD assessment sits at the intersection of psychology, paediatrics, and adult psychiatry. At Newport Counselling & Psychology Service (NCPS), we work alongside GPs, paediatricians, and psychiatrists to provide thorough psychological assessments that can confirm or rule out ADHD, identify co-occurring conditions, and inform whether a medical review for medication is appropriate.
