A therapist headshot that feels warm before the first session

Clients choose a therapist partly by face. They look for someone who seems kind, steady and not too polished. A headshot with soft light and a calm room behind you says that quicker than your bio paragraph does.

What clients read in a photo

A person picking a therapist online has often been putting off the decision for months. A friendly, steady face lowers the barrier to writing the first message. The bot softens light and removes visual noise so your expression carries that message, while your features stay yours and nothing is invented. Pair it with a short, plain bio and the first impression is settled before anyone books a call.

Practical details

Directories often ask for square or portrait crops, so keep the original result and crop it separately for each site. Avoid a heavily edited image with changed features, since your clients will meet the real you in the room. If a result looks too glossy, rerun with 'natural, minimal retouching' in the caption. Save two crops so you never have to guess later.

Tips

Warm neutrals such as cream, sage and soft grey read as safe and calm.
A slight smile with relaxed eyes beats a wide grin.
Avoid very dark backgrounds, they feel heavy for this profession.
Ask for a plant or bookshelf blurred behind you if you want a room feeling.

Questions and answers

Is it acceptable to use AI for a professional photo?

Many people do, as long as it still looks like you. Check any directory or licensing board rule on photos.

Can I show a consulting room?

Yes, describe it in the caption, such as 'sofa and lamp, blurred'.

What does it cost?

2 credits per image. New users get 15 free credits, so 7 images cost nothing. After that packs start at 49 Telegram Stars and credits do not expire.

Does the bot work in English?

Yes. It picks up your Telegram language on first launch. You can switch it any time with /lang.

What the bot does not do

Does not make video or animation.
Does not output a transparent PNG.
