Yosi Yaffe (Ph.D.) holds a position of senior lecturer at Tel-Hai Academic College. I specialize in family assessment and am interested in parent-child relations in diverse contexts of children's and adolescents' emotional and educational well-being. In the past, I worked in several academic institutions, including the Open University of Israel, Ohalo College, and Gordon College of Education. Since 2018, I have acted as the Editor of “Time for Education”- an Israeli Peer-Reviewed Journal of Perusal and Research in Education.
