Shame & Self-Acceptance: Coming Home to Yourself

A 6-week therapeutic journey designed to help you release the weight of toxic shame and reconnect with the parts of yourself you’ve hidden, silenced, or judged.

Dates: 8 September - 13 October 2026 Time: Tuesdays 7:00-8:30pm BST

Release toxic shame and embrace radical self-acceptance.

Across September and October, you’ll gently unravel old stories, soften self-criticism, and build the kind of inner safety that makes self-acceptance possible.
This is an invitation to lay down what was never yours to carry — and step into a life where you belong fully to yourself.

Welcome from Ify

“So many women carry shame as though it is a personal failure — when in truth, shame is learned, inherited, absorbed, and often placed upon us.
I created this programme as a gentle pathway back to yourself. Together, we will unpack the beliefs that have kept you small and rebuild a foundation of compassion, truth, and authenticity.
You don’t have to walk this journey alone. I’m honoured to guide you.”

— Ify Bam, Integrative Therapist

You are invited to step into a space where your whole self is welcome — the parts you celebrate, the parts you hide, and the parts you’re still learning to love.
This programme is a return home: to truth, to softness, to acceptance, to yourself.
