About Me
Meet Rorri Geller-Mohamed, LCSW
Hi! I created U Power Change for families like yours who are navigating some super challenging stuff. I use my professional background as a therapist to develop U Power Change but raising a multiracial family is also really personal to me. Having grown up in a multiracial family that was formed through adoption when my Mexican-American brother joined my family and now as a white mom raising children in a multiracial, multicultural, and multi-faith family, after marrying my husband who is Guyanese, I am extremely passionate about helping our children to feel supported in their identity and thrive.
My Experience
Professionally, I’ve been doing this work for over 15 years with youth, parents, and families in a variety of school, community, and clinical settings. For me, it always goes beyond just working with families, as I see it as a necessity to advocate for racial and social justice often by working with leaders and organizations to create systemic change.
My Education
I received my Master’s degree in Social Work from Columbia University and have post-graduate training in family therapy from the Ackerman Institute. I am also bilingual in Spanish which I learned as an adult.
Rorri started U Power Change because support and services for multi-identity families was missing.
Her goal was to create what families need to thrive.
Interested in working with Rorri?
My dream
is that the next generation can thrive in a safe, equitable, and inclusive world. As a white person, I also believe it is part of my responsibility to reach out, support, and organize to bring more white people into anti-racism and racial equity work.
