AGLOW Counseling

AGLOW Counseling AGLOW is a global hub for therapists and the world. Led by trauma expert Stacy Ruse, LPC, RYT, providing Self-led courses, trainings, and consultations.

Specializing in EMDR, IFS, Yoga, & Transpersonal therapies to inspire. Welcome to Aglow Counseling, where wisdom meets healing, and transformation takes center stage. Formerly at the helm of Stacy Ruse Counseling from 2013 to 2022, also known as Stacy Ruse Counseling Group, I embarked on a new journey that culminated in the merger with Mindfully in 2022. Now, with Aglow Counseling, my focus is on providing specialized therapist training and consultation, emphasizing integrative EMDR and IFS therapies infused with a Transpersonal twist. At Aglow Counseling, we believe in the innate wisdom within each individual. By tapping into your highest Self, you can access an expansive, loving, and healing energy that guides you through the challenges of being human. Life can be tough, and I am inspired to guide and support healers in becoming their best selves in life, work, and play. In my consultation services, I offer a sacred space for therapists and healers to be truly seen and heard without judgment or preconceptions. It's a space where you can communicate freely, openly, authentically, and be radically your Soul-Full Self. We recognize the vulnerability we all share to trauma and the overwhelming, fast-paced, and often invalidating nature of the world. Many of us seek to slow down, deepen our experiences, and find more meaning in our lives. So, at Aglow Counseling, we invite you and your clients to SHINE BRIGHT as you were meant to! With warmth and dedication,

Your nervous system is constantly listening - what sounds are you feeding it? 👂💙

In our noisy world, our nervous systems often exist in a state of chronic activation. But what if specific sound frequencies could guide you back to your natural state of calm, clarity, and connection?

Dr. Jeffrey Thompson's work in brainwave entrainment reveals how intentional sound can be medicine for an overstimulated nervous system. Through neuroacoustic science, you'll learn to use sound as a gentle yet powerful tool for regulation and restoration.

Whether you're a highly sensitive person, someone managing anxiety, or simply seeking deeper states of peace, these practices offer a pathway home to yourself.
Because true healing begins when your nervous system remembers it's safe to rest. 🌸

✨ All parts of you are welcome here ✨

We are not broken beings in need of fixing. We are beautifully complex souls with different parts that developed to help us navigate this world—some to protect, some to achieve, some to connect, some to survive.

Internal Family Systems teaches us to meet every part with curiosity rather than judgment, love rather than criticism.

Our comprehensive guide explores: • Understanding your internal family with compassion • Befriending protective parts instead of fighting them • Accessing your wise, centered Self • Healing internal conflicts with love • Supporting clients in their own parts work

Because true healing begins when we learn to love all parts of ourselves back home to wholeness ✨

The sacred art of conscious breathing 🧘

"Don't Speak, Just Breathe"—sometimes the most profound healing happens in the spaces between words, in the quiet rhythm of conscious breath.

Breath is our first teacher, our constant companion, our bridge between conscious and unconscious healing. In precision breathwork, we learn to honor this sacred practice as a powerful therapeutic intervention that:
• Regulates the nervous system in real-time
• Accesses deeper states of awareness and integration
• Connects mind, body, and spirit
• Offers immediate support during difficult emotions
• Creates pathways for transformation that words alone cannot reach

Whether you're supporting clients or nurturing your own healing journey, conscious breathing offers a gentle yet powerful doorway home to yourself ✨

The sacred paradox of healing ✨

"It is his own hurt that gives a measure of his power to heal. This, and nothing else, is the meaning of the Greek myth of the wounded physician." - Carl Jung

Your wounds are not your weakness, beautiful healer. They are the very source of your compassion, your depth, your ability to sit with others in their darkness without needing to turn on the lights too quickly.

Every therapist, every helper, every soul who dares to hold space for transformation carries this sacred understanding: we heal not in spite of our wounds, but because of them. Our broken places become doorways of empathy. Our struggles become bridges of connection.

Remember: The parts of your story that you once wanted to hide may be exactly what allows you to see and honor the hidden parts in others ✨

What would it feel like to move through life with radical self-compassion? 💗

So often, we carry our stories in our bodies - places where we've learned to hold, protect, or disconnect. Continuum Movement® with Dr. Donnalea Goelz creates a sacred space where you can gently dialogue with these held places through movement, breath, and sensation.

This practice invites you to befriend your body rather than override it. To listen with curiosity instead of judgment. To honor what wants to move and what needs to be still.

Imagine treating your body the way you would hold a beloved friend - with tenderness, patience, and deep respect for their healing journey. 🤗

Remember: Your body has been your faithful companion through everything. Perhaps it's time to return that loyalty with love.

🔍 Understanding trauma through the lens of resilience

Trauma isn't something that happens TO you—it's something that gets stuck IN you, waiting to be witnessed, processed, and integrated with compassion.

Our comprehensive EMDR guide offers a heart-centered approach to understanding: • How trauma lives in the nervous system • The beautiful science behind bilateral stimulation • Creating safety for processing difficult memories • Moving from survival mode to thriving • Supporting your own nervous system as a trauma therapist

Remember: Every person who sits across from you already carries their own innate wisdom for healing. EMDR simply creates the safe space for that wisdom to emerge and do its work ✨

The magic happens not just in the session, but in the integration that follows 🦋

Our September 8th EMDR Q&A session (3:00-4:00pm) offers something precious: the opportunity to explore how this powerful modality weaves into the fabric of your therapeutic practice. Beyond protocols and procedures, we'll dive into the art of holding space for profound transformation.

How do you support clients as they integrate newly processed memories? What happens when EMDR opens doorways to spiritual experiences? How do we honor the mysterious ways trauma releases and wholeness emerges?

These conversations matter because EMDR isn't just a technique - it's a gateway to the soul's natural capacity for healing and renewal. ✨

Remember: The questions that challenge us most often lead to our greatest growth as healers.

Your brain already knows how to heal—EMDR just helps it remember

What moves me most about EMDR? It honors your body's innate healing capacity. No forcing, no reliving every painful detail—just gentle bilateral stimulation that whispers to your brain, "It's safe to revisit this now."

Through simple eye movements or tapping, we activate the same neural networks that process memories during REM sleep. The amygdala calms while your wise prefrontal cortex steps forward to offer perspective and peace.

Many clients describe feeling as if a weight has lifted from their shoulders—finally able to breathe deeper and move through life with renewed confidence.

Because true healing begins when we trust our body's wisdom to guide us home to wholeness.

Some wounds require the gentlest touch and the deepest understanding 🕯️

Saturday, September 27th (8:00am-11:15am) brings an advanced exploration of IFS strategies specifically designed for complex trauma and dissociation. This isn't just professional development - it's sacred work that honors the courageous clients who trust us with their most vulnerable parts.

When traditional approaches feel inadequate for the complexity of dissociative presentations, IFS offers a framework that naturally aligns with how the psyche organizes itself for survival. You'll learn to work with parts that have carried unbearable experiences, creating safety for integration without forcing or overwhelming.

This training honors both your clinical expertise and the profound responsibility of holding space for those who have learned to fragment in order to survive. 🤲

Remember: Advanced skills in trauma work aren't just about technique - they're about cultivating the presence and patience that healing requires.
