Candice Epps

I am Candice Epps, MSW, LCSW-C, a licensed clinical social worker and one of the founders of Renewed Purpose Wellness Services, where I provide holistic, client-centered therapy designed to support healing of the mind, body, and spirit. I am a graduate of Morgan State University, where I earned my Master of Social Work, and I bring over a decade of experience in the mental health field working with individuals navigating trauma, life transitions, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm.

What sets me apart is my integrative, non–one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I blend evidence-based practices with holistic modalities such as EMDR, mindfulness, somatic work, and breathwork. I believe healing extends beyond traditional talk therapy—addressing not only thoughts and behaviors, but also the body’s stored experiences and one’s connection to self and purpose. I create a space that is grounded in clinical knowledge while remaining open, culturally responsive, and spiritually aware.

When working with me, you can expect a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental environment from the start. In the first few sessions, I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship, understanding your unique story, and identifying immediate concerns and long-term goals. I will gently guide you in increasing self-awareness, exploring patterns, and developing practical tools for regulation and coping. As therapy progresses, sessions may include deeper trauma processing, body-based interventions, and reflective exercises to support lasting change.
