Welcome! I am Keisha Weiford, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Professional Relationship Coach. I founded Family Solutions in 2003 with the goal of providing more support to families going through divorce.
I understand the conflict and pain divorce can bring to a family, because I’ve dealt with it personally. As a child of divorce, I was asked at age 9 by a mediator to choose who I wanted to live with. I chose my mother because I had a pink room with a frilly bed and cat. It was the comfortable, easy option. Unfortunately it affected my relationship with my father forever, and things were never quite the same.
As an adult, I wish things could’ve been different. I was not equipped to make that type of decision, and my choice changed the trajectory of my life. I subsequently was estranged from my father and my children didn’t get the opportunity to have a relationship with him. Being in the middle of my parents’ conflicts had a generational effect.
My goal is to make sure your family doesn’t have to go through the same negative impacts as mine. There is a way to establish a peaceful future, and Family Solutions is equipped to help.
