Samuel Luna - Recovering from PTSD

Samuel Luna
In this insightful interview, Samuel Luna shares his transformative journey from a Vietnam War veteran to a dedicated advocate for fellow veterans. After retiring 20 years ago, Samuel's plans for a leisurely retirement were upended when he attended a program focused on veterans' trauma.
This experience brought him face to face with the long-suppressed impact of his Vietnam service, leading him to confront his own post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Through therapy, Samuel began to unravel the deep-seated effects of his wartime experiences, which had been buried in his subconscious for decades.
Samuel's newfound awareness and healing process inspired him to become a visionary, dedicating his life to educating and supporting other veterans grappling with PTSD. He emphasizes the importance of understanding and addressing trauma, highlighting the profound impact it has on veterans' lives and their families.
Samuel founded a nonprofit organization, Texas for Heroes, based in Houston, which offers educational programs and therapy to help veterans understand and manage their trauma. His work has made a significant difference, providing veterans with the tools to achieve peace, joy, and a better quality of life. Samuel's story is a testament to resilience, healing, and the power of community support.
