There are moments in life when something within us stirs, an ache, a question, a quiet call for change. At Luceris, we listen to that call. Therapy here is not about fixing what is broken, but about tending to the light within, even when it feels distant, dim, or difficult to find.

For now, Luceris exists as a virtual clinic. Sessions are held exclusively online, or by phone, and are available to anyone living anywhere in Ontario. This is a temporary form. As we prepare for a physical space, the work continues in full presence and care.

No doctor’s referral is needed. Most insurance plans across Ontario cover the cost of psychotherapy.

You’re welcome to begin with a free 15-minute consultation, a thoughtful conversation to explore your needs and see if this work feels right for you.

Appointments are available during evenings and weekends, so therapy can fit into the structure of your life, not the other way around.

The way forward doesn’t begin with certainty. It begins with a small flicker of readiness.

I’m ready to walk with you when you are.

The light you seek is the light you carry.
