Summary: | 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.
