My dd is having lots of questions about Judaism and is slowly on her way off. I think a lot of it is mental/emotional, and we're dealing with that from the medical/therapist side.
But she is definitely craving connection with someone, probably a rabbi but could be a knowledgeable woman, to ask all of her existential and Judaism questions. Someone who won't get defensive and flip out when she screams and gets angry, has at least some answers, and who can be patient and accepting.
Please recommendations! We are in Israel.

I aish is great for this. If you are in Israel she can just walk into the discovery classes. The Rabbi's are always available after classes, and sitting in can help her get a feel on who she connects to.
On the top of my head, some kiruv Rabbi's who are great, but may or may not be super accessible:
Rabi Jamie Cowland or his wife Ilana. They have also had kids who struggled and all are frum today, at different levels, so really get struggling teens. Rabbi Cowland is more charismatic passionate type and Ilana is more the warm sweet type. I think they have contact info on LinkedIn.
Rabbi Lawarence Kelemen
Rabbi Gav Friedman
Rabbi Schoonmaker
Rabbi Dubov

Thank you! I know the Cowlands but didn't realize they have been through this, that's a great tip.

Call up Arachim and ask them for one of their Rabbis who works with teens in Israel.
They are fantastic.
