Arise Autism Center (AAC) is comprised of a group of professionals dedicated to serving individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. Our team consists of BCBAs, RBTs, and a strong administrative and organizational support team. Together, we aim to improve the quality of life for our clients and their families in a fun, stimulating environment. AAC was founded by Sebnem "Shebby" Aras, MPM. Shebby "fell" into the autism world in April 2016 when her son, Emir, was diagnosed at the age of 18-months. Shebby quickly transformed from an overwhelmed parent to Emir's advocate. Shebby witnessed firsthand the positive impact ABA had on her son and family and embarked on a personal mission to share what she had learned and give back to other families facing the uncertainty of an autism diagnosis. From this experience, AAC was born. In May 2019, AAC opened its first clinic in Lake Mary, Florida. In 2020, AAC opened its second clinic in Sanford, Florida. AAC currently provides home, school, and clinic-based ABA therapy for children with autism and other developmental disabilities in the Central Florida region.
