Designed with Heart, Inspired by St. Louis – December 2024
In December 2024, we introduced our new logo, thoughtfully designed to reflect the heart of the STL EFT Community and our mission to foster healing, connection, and growth. More than just an image, this logo tells a story – a tribute to St. Louis’ heritage and a reflection of the values central to Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
The Meaning Behind the Design
Each element of our logo has been carefully crafted to celebrate our community story and its St. Louis roots:
The St. Louis ArchAt the heart of the logo lies the iconic Gateway Arch, symbolizing connection, resilience, and the pride we hold for our city.
The Fleur-de-Lis FlagInspired by the historic St. Louis city flag, the fleur-de-lis represents strength, honor, and tradition. It ties us to St. Louis’ French heritage and enduring spirit.
The HeartThe heart represents the emotional bonds we help nurture, embodying love, safety, and vulnerability – the essence of EFT.
The Infinity LoopWoven into the heart, the infinity loop reflects the enduring and transformative power of secure attachment and emotional connection.
The Mississippi RiverThe flowing blue lines evoke the strength and fluidity of the Mississippi River, a cornerstone of St. Louis’ identity. Like the river, relationships are powerful, fluid, and life-giving.
Hands Holding the HeartThe subtle navy curves cradle the heart, symbolizing the care, trust, and safety we strive to offer individuals, couples, and families in our community.
The Colors of Our City
A Nod to St. Louis’ Heritage
Our logo pays homage to St. Louis’ rich history and vibrant culture through its connection to the city flag and the fleur-de-lis. These symbols honor our city’s past while reinforcing the community values at the heart of our work.
Can You Spot All the Easter Eggs?
Our logo is filled with hidden meaning – from the Arch and infinity loop to the heart and the flowing river. Take a closer look and uncover all the details that make it uniquely ours.
Closing Note
We designed this logo to represent not just who we are, but what we stand for: healing, resilience, and the transformative power of love and connection. Rooted in the colors, heritage, and symbols of St. Louis, it’s a celebration of community, growth, and hope.
