Everyone deserves a space where they can feel safe, accepted, and truly heard—especially when life gets confusing or tough. My goal is to be that space for you, where we can talk through what’s on your mind and help you feel more in control. I work alongside my mini golden doodle, Ellie, who adds to the calm and comforting environment during our sessions. If you’re dealing with overwhelming challenges, whether from past experiences or current pressures, I’m here to help you make sense of it all. This is a place where you can be your authentic self, knowing you won’t be judged. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on in your life and work through it in a way that feels supportive and healing. We’ll also focus on practical ways to handle stress, discover what makes you unique, and develop skills to make life feel more manageable. You don’t need to have it all figured out right now—if you’re ready to explore who you are and find new ways to navigate life’s challenges, I’m here to help you every step of the way.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by classes, relationships, family dynamics, or just life in general? College can be a time of huge transition — emotionally, socially, and academically. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or stress around identity and relationships, I offer a safe, inclusive space where you don’t have to figure it all out alone. I work with college students from all walks of life and am passionate about creating a space rooted in empathy, curiosity, and genuine connection. My approach is always tailored to you, because no two people experience things the same way. Therapy can feel intimidating, but I’ll make sure you feel seen, heard, and supported every step of the way. I specialize in a trauma-informed and systemic approach, incorporating modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, and Attachment Theory to help you explore your inner world with compassion and clarity. My work is experiential and empowering — designed to help you better understand yourself and move toward the life you want to live. Finding the right therapist can be tough, and I want this to be a space that feels not only safe but also meaningful and real. Whether you're working through personal challenges or navigating complicated relationships, I’m here to support you.

Our clinicians have immense compassion for the circumstances that lead one to seek out therapy. We hold therapy as a safe, non-judgmental space dedicated to your healing and growth. Through this work we may explore where you feel stuck and how to get unstuck, come to understand the multifaceted parts that make up your identity, what it means to be in relationship with yourself and those around you, how to be authentically yourself, and ultimately create deeper, more meaningful relationships and experiences.

Welcome to Greever Counseling! It has always been a deep conviction of ours that each and every person has immense value, meaning, and potential. Sometimes, life has a way of beating us down, until we no longer can see this within ourselves. Sometimes, we have been so hurt that we hide, avoid, lose hope, or give up…Sometimes, we run to coping patterns that ultimately leave us even more disconnected and isolated from ourselves and others. It is within this space where we want to welcome you. You don’t have to be perfect here. Often, it is within the context of brokenness where beauty and growth can occur. We take this work as a sacred opportunity to meet you, exactly as you are, and to help you find your path towards freedom and healing. It’s not an easy journey, but it is so worth it. Greever Counseling specializes in PTSD (trauma), Anxiety, Sex or Porn Addiction, Intimacy Issues, Couples Work, and Men’s Issues. If you are a psychological theory nerd (as we are), we operate from an integrative viewpoint which includes Relational Psychodynamic and Interpersonal Neurobiology, as well as processing tools within Internal Family Systems, EMDR, and Mindfulness. Ultimately, we believe that the starting point for healing is found within the context of a deeply authentic and relational encounter with another.

Licensed Professional Counselor

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of experience in person-centered and narrative-based therapy, working with youth through adulthood, with a particular focus on teens and young adults. Together, we'll navigate a confusing world so you can build greater self-understanding. I believe our past holds the key to our present behaviors, and that key can open the door to changing our future ones. The issues we struggle with aren't always the root cause, though; my goal is to help you identify what's truly underlying them, so we can get to the heart of what's going on. When you work with me, you'll find I'm a nerd who enjoys humor, with a mind that splits somewhere between Sherlock Holmes and Mr. Rogers. By exploring your past experiences through narrative-based approaches, I aim to empower you with a person-centered perspective. You already hold the answers to your own questions, so my role is to guide and support you as you discover your own solutions. Think of me as your hype person: I'll kindly point out patterns that may be getting in the way of your goals. While sitting in class, I listened to my classmates talk about the major impact therapy had on them. I’d heard of therapy before, but didn't grow up with the concept myself. Thinking back on my upbringing, I saw how many people in my community struggled without that kind of support. I come from a family of helpers, and that legacy stayed with me. Today, I bring a calming atmosphere, humor, and, of course, a helping hand to lift you during the hard times. My hobbies include art museums, concerts, nerdy things such as the Mile High comics, and going on adventures with friends.

Prior to private practice, I worked in college counseling for three years. My style as a therapist is to provide much warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor to help each client engage in a productive way of understanding themselves and their mental functioning. I take a holistic approach that encompasses the mind and the body. Although I work with many presenting concerns, I have noticed a commonality of how people are self-critical and subsequently experience declines in their mental health and relationships. I work with each client to develop self-awareness and coping skills to help decrease their mental health distress.

Life can be overwhelming, and finding the right therapist can feel like a daunting step. Whether you're exploring your identity, feeling stuck in a school/life transition, experiencing relationship conflict, or navigating anxiety, depression, or trauma symptoms, I’m here to help. I believe that deep healing occurs through attunement and that all parts of you deserve a voice. Using an integrative approach, I will support you in building self trust, curiousity, compassion, clarity, confidence and in finding calm. I am trained in EMDR, Parts work, somatic methods, and creative approaches. Additionally, I can offer Ketamine Assisted therapy (KAP). Finding the right therapist for you is an important decision. If it sounds like my approach may be a good fit, please reach out to crsscheduling@crscounseling.com and ask for a free consultation or appointment with Farrin. For ongoing therapy, I offer telehealth sessions, walk and talk or nature based therapy at various locations and in person sessions in Westminster, CO.

Whether you're navigating the aftermath of trauma; finding your footing in a new city, state, or country; or sitting with grief, anxiety, or questions about who you are, you don't have to figure it out alone. As an LPC candidate with three years of experience, my work centers on helping people process trauma, move through major life transitions, and build lives that feel meaningful and aligned with their values. Survivors of trauma, sexual violence, domestic abuse, and natural disasters are at the heart of my practice, and so are immigrants and refugees working to build a new life in a new culture. Beyond trauma recovery, support is available for grief and loss; questions related to sex, sexuality, and relationships; and the very real anxiety that can come from living through climate change and other global stressors. Many of the people who come to me are trying therapy for the very first time, and finding practical, tangible ways to improve daily life is something we work toward together from the start. Therapy is also available in Spanish for those who prefer it. This is your process, and collaboration is at the center of everything we do together. The therapeutic space we build will be safe, transparent, and gently challenging – a place where growth feels possible without pressure. Drawing primarily from EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Narrative Therapy, my work is tailored to help you process trauma, reconnect with your body and values, and shift beliefs and patterns that are no longer serving you. When a particular approach or intervention seems useful, the reasoning behind it will always be shared with you, and your feedback shapes what comes next. You are the expert on your own life. My role is to help that self-expertise shine through, and to make sure the practical strategies we build together are ones you can actually use beyond our sessions to make lasting, meaningful improvements in your daily life. I know what it's like to not have all the answers right away. My path to becoming a therapist didn't begin until my mid-thirties, after years of different careers, different countries, and many different versions of the question “who am I?” Those years of exploration ultimately made it clearer than ever that this work is what was meant for me. All of these varied experiences and perspectives come into the room with us. More importantly, they inform how deeply committed I am to helping you sit with your own uncertainty, to recognize its value, and to use it as a starting point for moving toward your own internal wisdom. Creative expression is a big part of life outside the therapy room. Writing, watercolors, and pottery are longtime passions, and languages are another, always learning, always looking for opportunities to connect across cultures. Traveling and trying new foods (and then attempting to recreate them at home) bring a lot of joy, as does time spent with my cat, Ernie.
