Recognized as a Winner of the Great Companies Global Business Award 2025 in the Health & Wellness category, Solidarity Therapy is reshaping community mental health in Langley, British Columbia. Founded by clinical director Jessie Dhaliwal in 2021, Solidarity Therapy is a multidisciplinary, trauma-informed counselling practice that centers cultural sensitivity, intersectionality, and anti-oppressive care. The clinic’s mission — to make therapy accessible, inclusive, and healing — has quickly positioned it as a vital resource for individuals, couples and families across the region.

What Makes Solidarity Therapy Stand Out

Solidarity Therapy blends high clinical standards with a social-justice lens — providing evidence-based therapies (EMDR, CBT, DBT, LENS neurofeedback, play therapy) alongside culturally attuned care. The clinic’s team is purposefully diverse (BIPOC and LGBTQ+ clinicians), offering safe, affirming spaces and accessible pricing models including sliding-scale and low-cost student counselling. Direct billing for a wide range of insurers and disability / trauma funding programs reduces barriers to care, making therapy more reachable for the community.

Key highlights:

  • Trauma-informed, anti-oppressive practice tailored to diverse identities.

  • Multi-modal therapies: EMDR, LENS Neurofeedback, Art Therapy, DBT, CBT, Play Therapy.

  • Sliding-scale and $40 sessions with pre-licensed clinicians; direct billing to many insurers/programs.

  • Virtual and in-person sessions, plus weekend/after-hours availability.

  • Community resources, crisis links, and an emphasis on collective healing.


Giving Back & Creating Impact

Solidarity Therapy’s mission extends beyond individual sessions. The clinic actively shares knowledge, partners with community organizations, and provides low-cost options to ensure therapy reaches people who need it most. Their public resources (emergency contacts, educational blogs like The Chai, and community partner signposts) help demystify mental health care and encourage early help-seeking. Internally, the practice prioritizes clinician wellness, ongoing training, and anti-oppression education.


Why Solidarity Therapy Won the Great Companies Global Business Award 2025

Solidarity Therapy represents the modern model of community mental health: clinical excellence fused with cultural humility and accessibility. In an era when mental health systems often exclude marginalized voices, Solidarity Therapy’s values-driven, intersectional care model fills a crucial gap — clinically robust, community-focused, and fiercely committed to equity. That combination of impact, innovation, and authentic service earned them this year’s Health & Wellness recognition.


Founder’s Vision

“Healing is both personal and collective. At Solidarity Therapy we meet people where they are, hold their stories with care, and partner with community to dismantle barriers to wellness.”— Jessie Dhaliwal, Clinic Founder & Registered Clinical Counsellor

The Future of Solidarity Therapy

Looking ahead, Solidarity Therapy plans to expand its low-cost counselling programs, deepen partnerships with local community agencies, and scale clinician training in trauma-informed and anti-oppressive practices. By continuing to blend innovation (like neurofeedback) with grassroots outreach and culturally aligned care, the clinic aims to become a regional hub for accessible, justice-oriented mental health services.
