Hey, fam! I’m Maryah and I'm a filmmaker, AuDHDer, photographer, a woman with anxiety, a writer, and many, many, MANY more things. Long story short, I am a storyteller who cares a whole lot about mental health. This is a place where I talk about BOTH storytelling and mental health because I believe they are interconnected. After all, storytelling aims to connect with the audience on a deeper level. My goal is to explore the relationship between storytelling and mental health and to create a community where we can be seen, heard, understood, and discover ourselves.

5. learning disabilities and the impact it has on the creative world with virginia taylor

I've spoken a lot about ADHD and other mental health conditions that can impact our creative world, but what about learning disabilities?

Learning disabilities are conditions that affect a person's ability to learn information, including reading, writing, math, listening, and speaking, despite having normal intelligence.

Unfortunately, individuals with learning disabilities, along with other forms of disabilities, are often overlooked. Less than 1% of writers in the TV industry are disabled, despite 29% of the U.S. population having disabilities... yikes!

Today, I'm interviewing speech pathologist Virginia Taylor to discuss this matter. Virginia Taylor runs her own private practice as a speech-language pathologist specializing in literacy intervention. She works with clients of all ages, including children and adults, in Columbia, South Carolina, and through teletherapy in other areas.
