Hip-hop is known for being gritty, rhythmic, full of culture, and sometimes offensive. The grittiness refers to the raw, unfiltered portrayal of life in urban areas, including poverty, violence, and the fight against systemic injustices. A trauma specialist is using the art of hip-hop to help those in historically oppressed communities process and heal from traumatic experiences, injustices, and more.
Guest Chantelle Doswell speaks with creative arts therapist and performing artist, Queen Ravenden, about using hip-hop therapy, music, and writing, to heal her community through an anti-oppressive & anti-racist lens.
Chantelle Doswell, LCSW is a Liberation Focused Trauma Therapist based in NYC & Adjunct Professor at Columbia University's School of Social Work. Chantelle is especially trained in facilitating body-based coping and healing from complex trauma, such as EMDR, breathwork and meditations, and movement-based interventions. She created her practice Ordinary Healing, LLC, in 2018, which focuses on providing creative, trauma-informed and anti-oppressive therapy and group healing experiences to historically oppressed communities. Chantelle is also the co-creator and co-host of the upcoming "Black Love Retreat," a first of its kind experience focused on addressing generational and individual trauma issues that can impact couple's in the diaspora's relationships.
Past events she's hosted have included: A writer's retreat to unblock writer's block, exploring identity through mask-making with youth, using music and movement to cope with trauma, a workshop called "Trauma 101," which covers the basics on how to identify and cope with trauma symptoms."
