Episode # 135 - The Emotional Toll of Learning Disabilities with Jacob Santhouse
In this episode, Laurie discusses the emotional impact of learning disabilities and ADHD with Jacob Santhouse, a licensed counselor and the founder of Olive Counseling.
Santhouse, who is dyslexic himself, focuses his practice on the emotional side of neurodivergence rather than just the academic or language-based struggles typically associated with dyslexia. He notes that many individuals with learning disabilities suffer from persistent self-doubt, social disconnection, and a sense of being "othered" in various contexts.
