Samuel Choura, LPCC is a licensed professional clinical counselor specializing in substance use disorders, co-occurring conditions, anxiety, and depression. He provides therapy for individuals and groups, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), somatic practices, and existential therapy.
Samuel believes recovery isn’t just about resolving symptoms—it’s about building a meaningful, fulfilling life. His therapeutic identity is also informed by his background in hypnotherapy, which he studied extensively early in his career. He began his work in a residential dual diagnosis program and has continued to dedicate himself to helping clients navigate the intersections of mental health and substance use with compassion and practical support.
Outside of work, Samuel enjoys engaging in spirituality discussion groups, wellness practices like breathwork, composing music, exercising, and spending time with his two beloved dachshunds.
