What do Augustus Gloop, Violet Beauregarde, Veruca Salt, Mike Teevee—and even Charlie—have to teach us about ADHD? In this Not Boring CEs episode, Allison Puryear, LCSW, and ADHD specialist Kathryn Chacra, LCSW-S, dive into Roald Dahl's chocolate-covered classic to explore the many faces of ADHD. From impulsivity and perfectionism to emotional regulation, masking, and rejection sensitivity, they unpack how these traits show up in kids and adults alike—and why so many ADHD presentations get missed or misdiagnosed. Kathryn shares her insights as both a clinician and a late-diagnosed ADHD professional, weaving in ACT, DBT, and practical strategies for clients and families. It's a rich, funny, and surprisingly sweet way to rethink what ADHD really looks like—beyond the stereotypes.
