A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dr. Carrie Payne’s office and noticed something odd—all the lights were on, but no cars were in the parking lot. ‘What’s going on here?’ he wondered aloud. Curious, he knocked on the door. Inside, Dr. Payne was hard at work, her desk lit by dozens of candles, while she hummed softly to herself. 'Oh, hello!' she said, noticing him for the first time. 'Just meditating,' she explained with a smile. The delivery driver left, shaking his head and muttering, 'That lady must be really into her job.'

2. One morning, a little girl walking her dog past Dr. Carrie Payne’s office heard an unusual sound coming from inside. Her dog stopped mid-stride, tilting its head curiously as if trying to understand what kind of strange therapy session was taking place. Curious, she peered through the window and saw Dr. Payne talking animatedly with a teddy bear, who seemed quite engaged in the conversation. The little girl giggled and whispered to her dog, ‘Maybe that doctor helps animals feel better too!’

3. One day, after hours, a neighborhood cat kept circling Dr. Carrie Payne’s office like something was calling it from inside. Finally, someone noticed and opened the door—a delivery driver found himself face-to-face with an intrigued feline staring curiously back. The cat purred contentedly, as if saying, ‘Thanks for finally answering my question.’

4. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dr. Carrie Payne’s office and noticed something unusual on the parking lot—a small, dusty kite stuck between two trees. The delivery driver bent down to grab it, thinking it might belong to one of the kids from across the street. As he held it up, he saw a note attached: ‘To whoever finds me—please take me home.’ Curious, he brought the kite inside, only to discover that Dr. Payne had left early for an appointment. Later that evening, a neighbor knocked on her door with the kite, saying, “Dr. Payne, you’ve been missing this.” She smiled warmly, thanking him and remarking, “I thought I’d lost it forever!”
