Stacey Burrack Watson

I have spent my entire career working with and advocating for students with disabilities. After earning my bachelor’s degree from Indiana University, I worked as the coordinator and educator of a high school alternative program. I then completed my master’s degree in clinical counseling at Adler School of Professional Psychology. For the past 13 years, I have served as a counselor in the access and disabilities department at a local community college as well as an adjunct faculty instructor in the Human Services department. My passion has clearly been in serving students on the Autism Spectrum. I co-founded the Transition Autism Program in 2013, which has supported over 100 students toward their goal of completing an associates degree. Due to the success of the program, I have been asked to speak at post-secondary conferences about best practices for transitioning to college. My focus in private practice is helping students make a successful transition to post secondary education. I also work individually with young adult and adult clients on other mental health issues.
