Stuart Kaplowitz / Serene Pathways Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MFT
Like a volcano, 2 things tend to happen if we stuff our thoughts and feelings; we can explode or implode. We may blow up and we all know what that looks like. Other times though, we stuff what's on our mind, thinking it will just go away. It wont. In fact, doing this can lead to angst and depression. We can help you best address your needs. 30 of us here to offer specialized care. We all get stuck sometimes. You deserve support to address bumps in the road and help you through them.

My practice is especially supportive for people navigating transitions, burnout, identity shifts, or the quiet sense that something in life needs to change.

2 Years Experience
Online in Irvine, CA California
Irvine is one of the wealthiest and most planned cities in the United States — anchored by UC Irvine and home to the regional headquarters of dozens of major corporations — with a therapy community shaped by the intersection of high-achievement academic culture, tech and finance sector burnout, and a large East Asian population that brings distinct cultural dimensions to help-seeking and mental health. The city's majority-minority population — with Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Iranian communities among the most prominent — drives strong demand for multilingual therapists who can work across multiple cultural frameworks. Hoag Hospital and the UCI Health system provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-established private practice community serving Irvine's planned residential villages. UCI's clinical psychology training program supplies a significant number of therapists to the broader Orange County ecosystem.
