About Us

Julia Lake is the founder and treating clinician at Greenpoint Speech. As a New York State licensed bilingual Speech and Language Pathologist and certified Teacher of Students with Speech and Language Disabilities (TSSLD), Julia is deeply committed to providing personalized care that fosters the communication development of every child she works with. She holds her Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech-Language Pathology (CCC-SLP) from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and completed her Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology from Columbia University. Julia is certified with bilingual extension certifications (BEA) in both Polish and Spanish.

Julia has extensive experience in a variety of pediatric settings, including hospitals, schools, and in-home placements. During her time at NYU Langone, she worked with children presenting a wide range of speech and language challenges, including expressive and receptive language delays, articulation and phonological disorders, and children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

Julia's therapy approach is holistic and individualized, always tailored to meet the specific needs and interests of each child. By integrating play-based techniques, she ensures therapy is both engaging and effective, promoting not only speech and language skills but also fostering a love for learning. Additionally, Julia actively involves parents and caregivers by providing them with practical home exercises and strategies to reinforce speech goals and support progress outside of therapy sessions.

As a mom to an energetic little girl and a playful little boy, Julia understands the joys and challenges of parenting. She loves spending her free time playing with her kids and enjoying every moment of family life.
