Logo Design Brief
I am looking for a fairly simple logo for my counselling practice. I am based in Toronto, Canada. Since my work concentrates on the RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARENT AND CHILD, I would like my logo to reflect that. I am open to the relationship between two people or two animals (elephant mom/child or giraffe mom/child).
I like the idea of a the graphic being in a circle, to the left of the words "PEARSON COUNSELLING". Ideally, each word should be a different colour (use the 2 darkest colours in the attached colour file).
There are a lot of cliché logos with this out there (please see attached logos that are NOT unique that I DO NOT want) - so I am looking for something unique. I have suggested a circle but am open to other ideas if they work.
Attached is a simple logo - ONLY to give some idea of POSITIONING of the circle/graphic relative to the text.
I wouldn't mind seeing an example with parents.families.children is lined up underneath Pearson Counselling. Not with periods but with dots between.
Please ask any other questions that you may have. Thanks so much.
Target Market(s)

Requirements
Must have
- A unique graphic. I am looking for a clean logo. I don't want any boxes or background surrounding the words Pearson Counselling. As well, the logo could be PEARSONCOUNSELLING (each word in a different colour); or PEARSON Counselling (each word in a different colour); or COUNSELLING could be nested underneath PEARSON.
- My colour palates are attached down below unless a designer wows me with a different combination that is unique and suite for a therapist's website. I think that I want the circular graphic to the left of the text.
Should not have
- Not too busy.
