About Jayne

Jayne Gottschalk is a Licensed Psychotherapist specializing in Marriage & Family therapy. She serves the three great states of New York, Connecticut and Florida where she also resides.

Jayne is uniquely positioned to help those who find themselves unfulfilled, anxious or depressed or those in an unhappy relationship (who may have suffered infidelity, financial, emotional abuse or general disconnection and unhappiness) to discover the next steps that are best for them, their relationship and their family. She has helped hundreds of couples over two decades as both an individual therapist and a couples and relationship expert.

Jayne firmly believes – no matter what the issue of daily living is – that positive change CAN happen and that it is not something to be feared, but to embrace. She will work with you to make that change a reality.

  • "Jayne helped my wife and I at the absolute darkest hour in our relationship. I really thought we were headed for certain divorce but Jayne clearly showed us the negative patterns in our relationship which were keeping us stuck and which we were both engaged in. She taught us how to create new, healthy patterns of communication and response. We learned how to release our resentments, how to forgive and how to love one another again. Trust me it was hard work but nothing short of miraculous!"

  • “We had never heard of Discernment Counseling before but our relationship was so damaged that we needed a different kind of “therapy.” Discernment Counseling allowed us both to look inwards and take responsibility for our part of the problems in the relationship. We saw our relationship through a different non judging lens. We had to ultimately decide if we wanted to work to change and actually solve the problems. I know we would not have made it through and still be together if not for Jayne’s expertise in Discernment Counseling. Bless her!

    - Dave and Liz

  • “Constant anxiety was ruining my life and all my relationships. All I did was ruminate and catastrophize and worry about “what if's"... My life was getting smaller and smaller and I couldn’t stop the negative thoughts that were constantly running through my brain. It was really hard to change, but with Jayne’s constant guidance and feedback, I was able to challenge my fears and begin to fully live my life with friends and family again.

  • “With the crazy demands of kids, household maintenance, demanding job, care for aging parents, and financial concerns, etc my husband and I had lost sight of one another. We had become bad roommates. With Jayne’s expert help we found our way back to one another and the love and passion we had lost. Jayne’s expert counsel is worth every penny! My only regret is the unhappy years wasted – wish we had gone to see her much sooner!

    - Laura I

  • “Stress and worry was overwhelming me. I reached out for help finally. I found an understanding, patient and smart therapist who deeply cared about me and helped me to reorder my life – to take care of myself and reprioritize the things that are important to me.”

    - Neil G
