I am a sleep psychologist specializing in helping moms fall asleep and stay asleep without medication. Sleep problems can develop at any time in your life--especially during major transitions. Motherhood and being a woman is full of many changes that can cause sleep problems. Hormone changes, such as pregnancy, perimenopause, and menopause all impact our sleep.
