Connect With Our Learning Disability Specialists
Whether you're a parent seeking guidance, an educator exploring collaboration, or a researcher interested in our work with learning disabilities, we're here to listen. Every conversation starts somewhere, and we'd rather hear your question than have you search for answers alone.
We Welcome Your Questions and Feedback
Our team fields inquiries from families, school administrators, therapists, and community organizations across Israel. Some reach out with a specific concern about a child's reading development. Others want to understand how our diagnostic process works before making a referral. Both are equally welcome.
The fastest way to get a thoughtful response is email. We read every message that comes through, and our practice is to reply within about three business days. For general inquiries about our educational programs, assessment availability, or special education resources, write to our director directly:
Dr. Talia Rosenfeld, Director
[email protected]
Please include a brief description of your inquiry so we can route your message to the right specialist on our team.
If you're a parent or caregiver, don't worry about using clinical language. Tell us what you're noticing at home or what the school has shared with you. We'll take it from there.
Response Window: Messages received on weekends or holidays are reviewed the following business day. If your matter is time-sensitive, mention that in your subject line.
Academic Collaborations and Lab Visitations
Achiya has maintained ongoing research partnerships with Israeli universities and international institutions working on literacy acquisition, neurodevelopmental assessment, and inclusive pedagogy. These collaborations shape how we refine our intervention models and contribute to the broader evidence base around learning disabilities in Hebrew-speaking populations.
We receive a steady number of requests from graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty interested in different forms of engagement. Here's what each typically looks like:
If you're considering doctoral research that intersects with our areas of focus, email Dr. Rosenfeld with your CV, a brief research statement, and the name of your academic supervisor. We evaluate fit based on current project capacity and methodological alignment.
Joint projects typically begin with a scoping conversation. We're most interested in applied research that has direct implications for classroom practice or family support. Send a one-page proposal outline to start the discussion.
We host a limited number of site visits throughout the year for educators and researchers. Visits are scheduled about a month in advance and require coordination with our program leads to ensure minimal disruption to active sessions.
On timing: our academic collaboration calendar fills quickly between September and January. Inquiries submitted during the spring months tend to receive faster scheduling consideration. This isn't a guarantee of availability, but it reflects the rhythm we've observed across several intake cycles.
All collaboration and visitation requests should be directed to:
Dr. Talia Rosenfeld

Subject line: "Academic Inquiry – [Your Institution]"
Connect With Our Leadership
Achiya's leadership team brings together practitioners with backgrounds in clinical psychology, special education policy, and applied developmental research. When you reach out to our director, you're writing to someone who still works directly with families and schools — not just an administrator behind a desk.
Dr. Talia Rosenfeld leads Achiya's strategic direction and oversees our diagnostic and intervention programs. She is the primary point of contact for partnership discussions, media inquiries, and organizational matters.

For a closer look at the people behind our programs, visit our team page. You'll find individual bios and areas of specialization that can help you direct your inquiry to the right person from the start.
We also encourage those interested in supporting our mission to explore ways to get involved. Volunteering, professional mentorship, and community advocacy all play a role in expanding access to quality learning disability services.
What to expect after reaching out: You'll receive an acknowledgment within one business day confirming we've received your message. A substantive reply follows within about three business days. If your inquiry requires input from multiple team members, we'll let you know the adjusted timeline.
We understand that reaching out about a learning disability — whether for your child, your student, or your own research, can feel uncertain. You don't need to have all the details figured out before contacting us. Start the conversation, and we'll help shape it from there.
