Luceris: That You May Be Illuminated

Luceris is drawn from the Latin lucēre, meaning “to shine,” and rooted in lux, the word for light. Its form, lucēris, can be read as a quiet invocation: “may you be shone upon.”

This is not a command, but a wish that you might be illuminated, not by external answers or prescriptive solutions, but by two sources: the light of your own mind and the unfolding process of therapy.

Where Light Comes From Within

At Luceris, we believe that insight is not delivered from the outside but revealed from within. The therapeutic relationship becomes the mirror in which clarity is reflected. Your own awareness becomes the light that guides change.

Luceris stands for the capacity within each person, and each relationship, to reflect, make meaning, and choose the direction of growth. We hold that your consciousness, when met with care and presence, becomes the very instrument through which transformation can begin.


Thus, Luceris stands for the mind as the source of light, light as a source of transformation, and transformation as an act of becoming fully oneself.

Bearers of Light: The Lineage You Belong To

Throughout time, flame has stood as more than a symbol. It has been a longing, a truth, and a shared inheritance. Across cultures, mythologies, and histories, light has appeared, sometimes stolen from gods, sometimes sheltered in homes, and sometimes sparked in a single human heart that chose truth over silence.

At Luceris, we honour these stories not as relics, but as echoes of a shared human journey: to become conscious, to see, to begin again. The light you carry belongs to a lineage. It did not begin with you. And it will not end with you. You are part of something greater.

From Fire to Light: The Origins of Luceris

Therapy That Tends, Not Fixes

The flame is not just a symbol. It is a declaration, ancient, essential, and deeply personal. Since the earliest days of humanity, fire has given warmth, safety, and vision. It turned night into possibility, and fear into imagination. Fire let us gather, speak, and imagine beyond survival. But more than a tool, flame became a mirror. It reflected not just our surroundings, but our awareness, the quiet dawning of the mind that could say, I am. It is about the moment we became conscious enough to suffer, wonder, heal, and reach.

Without fire, there is no civilization. And without your mind, there is no you. Your light is not just about survival, it is the capacity to reflect, to look at your past, bring it into focus, and choose how it shapes what comes next.

At Luceris, this is what we honour: the capacity to direct one’s path, both individually and in relationship.

The Light Within: Consciousness as Gift

Light as a Lineage

At Luceris, we believe that consciousness is not a flaw or burden, but a gift that allows us to shape meaning, direction, and connection. Without the mind, we are instinct without insight,
motion without meaning. But when consciousness is clear and deliberate, we become capable of shaping our inner world, rather than being shaped by it.

The mind, like fire, can be volatile when left unattended. But when engaged with curiosity, structure, and care, it becomes the very force through which reflection, choice, and change emerge. Here, the light within you is not extinguished. It is recognized, worked with, and reclaimed.

Light in the Therapeutic Process: Insight, Presence, Alignment

Therapy at Luceris is a reflective process where insight takes form. In this space, what has waited in silence gains shape and language. This clarity arises from within, through presence and careful attention.

We honour therapy as a process in which light becomes focused, often gradually, but with intention.

This work takes many forms, including:

Our Team

Francesco Addesi

Francesco Addesi, B.A., M.A., RP (Qualifying)

Francesco’s approach to psychotherapy is grounded in clinical rigor and shaped by lived experience. His work integrates evidence-based models, including cognitive, behavioural, and experiential frameworks, with a rare ability to understand human nature beyond theory. Clients often describe his presence as perceptive, steady, and quietly insightful.
He holds formal training in psychology and psychotherapy and continues to deepen his clinical expertise through research, supervision, and advanced study. His approach is structured yet adaptive, balancing theoretical clarity with intuitive precision.
But Luceris is not only the product of professional development, it is also personal. Francesco’s early life was marked by instability, fear, and emotional weight carried largely in silence. He sought clarity not out of readiness, but necessity. That search eventually shaped his therapeutic vision.
Luceris is, in many ways, a response to the path he had to walk alone. He built a space so others would not have to do the same. His work is an invitation not to bypass struggle, but to meet it differently, to approach healing not as repair, but as recognition. Not to avoid the dark, but to light it just enough to walk through.Francesco combines clinical training with lived experience. His approach is attuned and non-judgmental. Clients find his presence calm and perceptive.

Finally, Luceris: A Place to Tend the Light

Not to Banish the Dark, But to Walk Through It, Together

Luceris is a place to be seen, to be understood, and to be supported as you become. We do not seek to banish darkness or erase pain. We walk with you, and those you love, through it.

Not a Problem to Solve, But a Light to Reveal, Together

Neither you, nor your relationships, are a problem to be solved. What exists between you is a light to be revealed, a path to be walked together, and a shared mind to be honoured.

Therapy at Luceris begins with a quiet hope that you come to recognize:

The Light you seek is the light you carry.

Tend the Light Within

At Luceris, therapy is not a fix. It’s a return
