A demonstration site — this practice and its clinicians are not real.
An empty therapy room seen from the doorway: two sage armchairs, a walnut side table, a brass floor lamp and a plant below a curtained window.

Being honest about it

How these pictures were made

Every picture on this site was generated, and every one says so. None shows a person, a word or a real office.

AI-generated illustration. Not a real office.

Generated, not photographed

This practice is invented, so there is no office to photograph and nobody to ask permission of. Every picture on this site was generated from a written description, and each one says so on the picture itself.

About the pictures. Every picture on this site was generated, and every one is an empty room or an object: no person, no face, no hand, nobody in distress, and nothing anybody could read.

The seven rules the pictures were made under

Each rule is a decision about what a description asks for, and what it leaves out.

  1. Nobody in any picture

    No face, no hand, no silhouette, no reflection. A therapy room is pictured as a client first sees it: empty, with the chairs where they will be. A picture of a person on a sofa would be a client the practice never saw.

  2. Nobody in distress

    No head in hands, no tissues placed as a crying cue, no rain on the glass. A reader in a bad week should see a room they could sit in.

  3. Nothing anybody could read

    No book spines, no framed diploma or certificate (a license these people do not have), no screen, no clock, no sign and no door number.

  4. Every picture labeled

    Every picture carries the label "AI-generated illustration. Not a real office." so that no generated room reads as a real office at 37-32 61st Street.

  5. American rooms

    Prewar plaster walls, oak floors and white double-hung windows, most with a sheer curtain. Where the glass shows anything, it is the blurred brick and trees of the building next door: no street, no sign, no person and nothing anybody could name.

  6. No desk between the chairs

    Two chairs angled toward each other, the way a session is actually sat.

  7. The crisis page has no picture

    The page that lists 988 and 911 is words only.

Why no people, and no distress

Pictures of people in therapy tend to do one of two things: show distress for effect, or show a stock smile. Neither tells a reader anything true about the room they would sit in, and a reader in a bad week should not be shown somebody else's.

A picture of a person in a session would also stand for a client the practice never had. That is the same fault as an invented endorsement, in another medium, and it is refused for the same reason.

Why every picture carries a label

Each picture is labeled: “AI-generated illustration. Not a real office.”

A generated room can look like a real one, and a reader choosing a place to bring something private is owed the difference. The label sits on the picture, where the eye lands, and not in a footnote.

A real practice built from this design would show its own rooms, photographed with nobody in them, and would leave out anything a visitor could take for a credential.
