I’m Julia Belova-Ross, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Deep Waters Psychiatry & Wellness. I provide integrative psychiatric evaluation and medication management for children, teens, families, and adults throughout Colorado.

I have always been drawn to the deeper story behind symptoms. When a child is struggling with attention, emotional outbursts, anxiety, sleep, motivation, or behavior, I do not see it as “just ADHD” or “just anxiety.” I see a child and a family trying to make sense of something that can feel confusing, exhausting, and deeply personal.

As a parent of a neurodiverse child, this work is close to my heart. I understand what it feels like to search for answers, worry about your child’s future, wonder if you are doing enough, and hope that someone will slow down long enough to look at the whole picture. That experience has shaped the way I care for families.

My approach is integrative, thoughtful, and rooted in the belief that mental health symptoms deserve to be understood — not just managed. Medication can be an important and helpful part of treatment, but it is not the only part of the story.

I completed the Functional Medicine for ADHD Provider Certification through Psychiatry Redefined, which strengthened my passion for helping children, teens, and adults with ADHD through a more complete and individualized lens. ADHD is not simply about focus or behavior. It can affect emotions, confidence, relationships, school, work, sleep, motivation, and family life. My goal is to help patients and families better understand what may be contributing to symptoms and create a plan that feels both practical and supportive.

I created Deep Waters Psychiatry & Wellness to offer care that feels more personal, thorough, and human. Care where patients are not rushed. Care where parents feel heard. Care where symptoms are taken seriously, but the person is never reduced to a diagnosis. My goal is to help you or your child feel seen, supported, and better understood while building a treatment plan that supports stability, healing, and the ability to truly thrive.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, gardening, camping in the mountains, foraging, and being near water. Nature has always been one of the places where I feel most grounded, and it reminds me that healing often begins with slowing down, reconnecting, and feeling safe again.
