Counseling Practice – A Safe Perch, LLC

A Safe Perch, LLC is an individual therapy practice based in Takoma Park, Maryland, operated by Orly Jalowski, LCPC (Maryland license #LC7605). Jalowski holds a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics and Languages from New York University and a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of the District of Columbia, bringing more than nine years of clinical experience to her work with adult clients across all age groups.

The practice’s office is located at 6411 Orchard Avenue, Suite 102, Takoma Park, MD 20912, with free parking available in the adjacent lot and on nearby streets. Sessions are conducted both in-person at this location and through telehealth, allowing clients to choose the format that suits their circumstances.

Therapeutic work at A Safe Perch draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based frameworks. Jalowski describes her approach as semi-structured: clients lead the conversation while the clinician provides active listening and guidance aimed at revealing hidden patterns, dynamics, and habits underlying presenting concerns. The stated emphasis is on sustainable, lasting change rather than symptomatic relief alone.

Clinical specialties include anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, addiction, grief, loss, anger management, and life transitions. The practice places particular emphasis on multicultural counseling, acknowledging how intersecting identities related to race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, and disability shape each client’s experience. Jalowski commits to examining personal intersectionality and systems of privilege as part of her clinical practice.

New clients are encouraged to schedule a consultation to assess therapist-client compatibility before beginning regular sessions. Contact is available by phone at 301-892-6549 and by email at contact@asafeperch.com. Insurance participation is not stated on the website. No year of establishment is listed on the page.
