Wulsin specializes in chronic adult sleep issues and has made it her mission to ensure that the next generation sleeps better than the last. “I am here to empower parents with the best techniques for training good sleepers and to validate the insanity that ensues from the ongoing struggle within a sleepless house,” she said.

Wulsin seeks to create a safe space within this three-hour session for a difficult conversation and is leaving ample time for specific questions and assistance. She will also address the dangers of parental exhaustion and easy, free ways to improve parents’ sleep when the kids are actually sleeping.
