We do not look at people as "sick" or as sinners beyond redemption; instead, we believe in the goodness of God and the goodness and value of what He created.  We put our reliance on the hope and healing found through a transformational relationship with God.  Fostering this relationship will be the focus of our time together.

Christian Counseling Services

Dr. Donna and Dr. David Lane offer individual, couples, and family sessions by appointment.  Day and evening hours are available. Together, the Lanes have 80 years of combined experience.  Their Christian focus allows their counseling to be holistic, wellness-oriented, and empowering.  Partnership with Christ combined with an emphasis on personal responsibility and willingness to grow are the foundations of their approach.  The overarching goal of counseling is discovering what aspects of God's nature are reflected in you as part of your original creation, and removing hindrances to the expressions of those aspects of God's nature from your heart.  
     Dr. Donna Lane is an Adjunct Professor of Counseling at Mercer University, and a Christian Counselor in private practice since 1993.   Dr. David Lane was founding faculty member and developer of the graduate counseling programs at Mercer University, where he is Professor of Counseling.  
​
     The Lanes are award-winning authors and speakers. Together, the Lanes have presented at local, regional, national, and international conferences and workshops on such topics as trauma, grief and loss, marriage counseling, toxic religion, early childhood education, and soul care.  Donna and David have been married since 1979, and have three children; Hayden, Lindsey, and Cody, who passed away in 2007 after a battle with a degenerative neurological disorder.

God is offering healing and hope.  Will you listen and receive?
Satan has two main goals in his plans for us: to cover up who God created us to be, and to limit our choices so we cannot give or receive love.
According to the story of the fall of man in Genesis 3, God's enemy uses three lie beliefs to deceive us and achieve his goals.

Self as God.

This lie is literally the root of all evil.  It has two sides to it, like a coin. Either I judge myself to be superior, or I judge myself as inferior. In both cases, I set myself up as the judge. My beliefs under this deception can be:
"I'm more important than anyone else"
It is all up to me"
"I'm worthless"
​"I don't matter"

Shame

This lie grows out of the root of Self, and looks to assign fault, either to self or others. My beliefs under this deception can be:
"I'm bad"
"It's all your fault"
"I should have..."
​"You ought to...."

Fear

​​From the root belief that we can be our own god, to the shame that comes from realizing our failure at being God, fear is the result.  Fear beliefs have to do with control, and my beliefs under this deception can be:
"I have to"
"I can't"
"I am out of control"
"I must be in control"
Through prayer, we help you discover the lies you believe, and allow the Lord to replace those lies with His truth. Instead of Self as God, you learn your true identity in Christ. Responsibility replaces shame, and the freedom to choose replaces fear. "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32).
