the work of Cathy Pascal, MSW.
Welcome.
This site is a place to learn about my work and the methods that have shaped it — counseling, Focusing, the Realization Process, and the broader territory of embodied awakening.
A free meditation is available here, and you are welcome to explore.
Focusing
Focusing has been woven through everything I have taught and offered for over 25 years. If you are looking for individual Focusing sessions or classes, I warmly recommend two practitioners I have trained and who are actively teaching and doing sessions.
The Realization Process
My latest dive into Embodied Awakening has been with The Realization Process. This process is a direct path to embodied non-dual awakening. It is a series of powerful but gentle, precise attunement practices for realizing your own nature as fundamental consciousness.
Teaching & Mentoring
For over twenty years I taught Inner Relationship Focusing, including all four levels of the curriculum, and mentored many students toward becoming Focusing professionals. I served for 24 years as a certified Focusing Coordinator with The International Focusing Institute, and remain a certified Focusing Trainer.
This chapter of my work has largely wound down. Focusing remains central to my own practice and informs everything I offer — and I remain open to targeted engagement for sharing this foundational work.
“Cathy is someone I highly recommend. Her warm, grounded presence and compassionate empathy make her a transformative person to be around. A shining example of someone living a Focusing life.”
