Overview
I designed the brand identity for OC Men’s Therapy, a counseling practice supporting men in Orange County. The system was built to feel grounded, confident, and approachable—creating a masculine, stigma-free space that encourages emotional growth.
The Work
The logo centers on a pier silhouette with flowing waves and a rising sun, each element chosen for meaning:
- Pier: stability and grounded support
- Waves: emotional depth and the ebb and flow of growth
- Rising sun: renewal and forward motion
The pier also anchors the brand to Orange County’s coastal identity. Bold sans-serif typography conveys directness, with emphasis on “MEN’S” and a softer treatment of “THERAPY” for balance. A restrained palette of deep slate gray, white, and warm orange pairs strength with openness, and the mark works as both a primary logo and a standalone icon across digital, print, and environmental applications.
Outcome
The identity positions OC Men’s Therapy as a modern, trusted practice that speaks directly to the men it serves—strong without being intimidating, supportive without feeling clinical.
