Self-Help Coach at Yocheved Golani Self-Help Coaching

A highly skilled researcher, writer and skilled communications editor, I'm a problem-solver who accelerates solutions. How? By meeting many needs as I'm thinking "outside the box." I translate, too. My bi-lingual expertise in accomplishing diverse tasks includes logistics, implementation and completion in Hebrew and English. My unusual level of patience and healthy sense of humor puts people at ease. I speak on radio about diverse topics (no "dead air" with me!). I can record voice-overs in Spanish, English and Hebrew. I'm the voice for a ClinicMedia medical video about cardiac health.
A medical journalist and former supervisor of medical records, my patient-empowering books focus on health topics. The 2007 workbook, "It's My Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To: A Life Book that Helps You to Dry Your Tears and to Cope with a Medical Challenge" is #2 on the Musella Foundation's "Recommended Books" list. Updated edition "EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge" is receiving high acclaim.
I also write book and music reviews, feature stories and publicity materials.

I meet diverse writing needs for clients around the world. Publicity with press and media releases and other content, feature stories, business letters, scripts, speeches, you name it.

Anthologies from Baltimore Writer's Alliance, Booklocker, and Targum/Feldheim contain my work. In addition to my short stories, I've written two espionage novels and a book about how to cope with medical challenges and crises.

I access reliable, diverse sources of information. That empowers my writing services for clients who need reliable research, excellent content for publicity, speeches and scripts, website content, all kinds of writing. I'll find what my clients need, FAST! I meet deadlines with creativity, quality work and a sense of calm for all concerned. I've appeared on TV and radio. Broadcasters appreciate my poise and humor. An avid adventurer, I enjoy new people, places and experiences. An experienced Self Help coach, I am certified in Spiritual Healing Techniques (based on Efim Svirsky's teachings) by Ilan and Sandy Feldman and in Counseling Skills by Refuah Institute's Dr. Josh Ritchie. My orientation to health issues convinced me to become a raw foods vegetarian. I also sell DYNASPLINT rehabilitative products because they're so effective at helping people to recover the use of their damaged limbs in less time that it takes with ordinary splints.
