Shaun Peknic

I’m a therapist and the SAT Project’s Director responsible for client intake, staffing, and educational programs for clinicians. I wear many hats and enjoy them all!

For twenty years, I explored the human condition onstage as a theatre director, developing work about queer identity, family trauma, and the subconscious. Now, I support clients as they tell their own stories offstage.

Learning to communicate needs effectively is essential in all partnerships. I bring my deep knowledge of storytelling, communication, and relationship-building into work with individuals, couples, and creative teams.

I hold a master’s degree in organizational psychology with a focus on group processes and organizational behavior and I have a BFA from New York University. I’ve also taught on the faculty of NYU and Kingsborough College.
