Meet our dedicated founder and speech therapist, Luisa Rinaudo. With a strong educational background and a genuine passion for helping others and creating a safe space for individuals of all abilities.

Luisa embarked on her journey at a young age by experiencing life as a sibling to her brother, Sal who happens to rock an extra chromosome! Luisa carried her knowledge from growing up in the special needs community and entered the field of education by graduating with an undergraduate degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education from Seton Hall in 2019. Building on her commitment to making a difference, she pursued a Master’s degree from the same institution, completing her studies in 2021.

From educational settings to clinical environments, Luisa has worked tirelessly to develop her skills and understanding to better help those in her community. She has worked with individuals from diverse walks of life, honing her expertise with a particular passion for the pediatric population and adults with intellectual and developmental differences.

Growing up alongside her brother and his friends, Luisa has been immersed herself in a community that has enriched her life and perspective. This unique vantage point has instilled a deep sense of gratitude and purpose, inspiring Luisa to give back to the community that has played an integral role in shaping who she is today, hence The Therapy Garden was born!

Join Luisa on this remarkable journey as she continues to make a positive impact in the lives of those she serves. Her unwavering commitment, combined with her genuine empathy and expertise, creates an environment where growth and progress flourish. At The Therapy Garden, we are privileged to have Luisa as a guiding force in our pursuit of helping individuals blossom and thrive.
