Abstract

The article presents a young woman’s case that shows a history of learning disabilities. The author  searched in the narrative registered in the reports of five years of therapy sessions in a clinical school in  order to analyze the meanings of reconstruction of the identity that the young woman made in her  lifespan. The analysis and its interpretation showed that the essence of Mara’s identity was constituted  by the meanings attributed to the inter-relations with those who mediated her activities. The narrative of  the emotions and feelings lived and expressed is indicative and constituent of the singular identity of  Mara, with disabilities and unfavorable conditions of learning. The case demonstrates that the limitations  mediated by the social and psychological factors determined the story of Maras cultural development.

Keywords: learning disabilities; emotions; feelings; identity; historical-cultural perspective.
