The LOGO.
The Changing Course Counselling logo was carefully designed and adapted from the Dara Knot. The Dara Knot is an intricate Celtic symbol featuring a continuous pattern of interlacing lines that form a distinctive intertwined motif with no beginning or end, representing eternity and the interconnectedness of life.
The Dara Knot is characterized by its four distinct corner points and intertwining lines that create a visually striking and complex pattern representing the roots of an Oak Tree. The word "Dara" itself is derived from the Gaelic word for the mighty "oak tree," a symbol of inner strength, wisdom, and endurance.The symbol represents our commitment to support the individual's intrinsic value and need for interconnectedness.
