(she/her)
I am a native North Carolinian, raised on a farm. I find enjoyment in seeing the moment when clients in my care get it and understand themselves better. I consider myself a behaviorist at heart with a passion for utilizing DBT and working with those suffering from emotional dysregulation, self-harm and suicidal thoughts. I believe that everyone is capable of achieving a life worth living and loving. My areas of passion and expertise are in personality disorders, depression and neurodivergence.
Clients who work with me will find joy after suffering and realize setbacks are not the end of your story, but rather an opportunity for a new beginning. You will take away from each session something new about yourself and skills to achieve your valued goals in life.
My greatest strengths are radical authenticity and irreverence. I prefer to use humor in sessions and can recognize a need for connection even when not verbalized. I aim to create a sense of equity, safety and support for all.
I love to help folks find their authentic selves and live unapologetically. My experience spans elementary age to mid-life and everything in between. If you are quirky, unique and yearn for skills and stability, I'm the provider for you. Therapy is a collaborative process and I have expectations to for clients to be active participants in their recovery. I enjoy working with teens, women, multicultural issues and personality disorders. I have specialized training in working with individuals who have a history of self-harm, suicidal ideation and hospitalization.

I have only had a limited number of sessions even so, I can tell she truly listens and internalizes everything I say. She is not afraid to be direct and give harsh truths when necessary but is also willing to validate you when she agrees with something said. Overall highly recommend Dr. Beech and cannot speak highly enough of her.

I have been seeing Sheena for 4 years now, and I am very grateful for her work! She continues to help me build DBT skills and apply them to my life. She keeps my sessions focused on what I need and helps me pinpoint things that I had not otherwise considered. She challenges me to use my skills. These skills have been very effective in bettering my interpersonal relationships and my relationship with myself. I leave my sessions feeling capable and empowered to keep going and growing!

The best therapist I have worked with, she is gentle and kind but holds me accountable and that's exactly what I need.
