Yes, there's an autistic therapist on campus at this college counseling office.

Meet Dr. Naz Zerka. He's a therapist who meets with students on campus at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana - a college well known for its prestigious engineering school and other STEM programs, which means there's a steady flow of students on the spectrum who wind up seeking guidance. Naz says some of the students who find their way to his office are aware they have autism, or may, others come looking for help because of other challenges, and after using some screening tools begin to understand that their struggles may be linked by the single diagnosis of autism. Naz knows this path because he was on it. He was undiagnosed and put into special ed programs as a child. He made it to college because he was great at math and science and got a football scholarship. But he had a hard time as an undergrad and was still struggling with reading comprehension, writing and time management in grad school. Mentors helped him find the right supports to keep him on a path to success. Today Naz has a doctorate in social work, but says his best credential is his lived experience as a kid on the spectrum growing up in communities of color in Flint and Saginaw, Michigan. Real talk from a counselor who's been there.
