What is This Houseplant? (Schefflera)

multi branching plant with leaves arranged in a circleI need to know what kind of plant this is and how much sun does it need? I live in a basement suite where it doesn't get a lot of direct sun. Is there anyway to help the plant get some more light.

Umbrella plant (a.k.a. Schefflera). Doesn't need direct light; just bright indirect. www.gardeningknowhow.com/.../schefflera-plant-care.htm

The plant appears quite healthy and not at all etiolated. I suggest you continue caring for it as you have been. I burn daylight compact fluorescent lamps near many of my indoor plants. They cost little to operate and don't produce much heat.

Dwarf Shefflera (there's also a variegated variety). Lighting is what others have said. Google Dwarf
Shefflera and see pictures.
