Common questions

What photo works best on Psychology Today?

A warm, clear head-and-shoulders shot in soft light. Clients decide in seconds whether you look approachable.

How formal should a therapist headshot be?

Less formal than a lawyer, more put-together than a selfie. Smart casual is the norm.

How often should I update it?

When your look changes, and at least every couple of years. Clients should recognize you at the first session.
