Your mind is a garden. Your thoughts are the seeds. The harvest can either be flowers or weeds.

A Little About Me at Momentful Living!
Nancy Tanguay, RSW
Welcome! My name is Nancy! I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.
When I do not have my therapist hat on, I like to go out on walks in nature, spend time with friends, family. I looove to read with a nice cup of tea and I really, really enjoy gardening.
Although seemingly simple, these all help to keep my therapeutic skills up to date.
- The walks in nature allow me to stay mindful and in the present moment;
- The cup of tea reminds me that we all have that thing we like; and
- Gardening reminds me that good things take care and hard work in order to meet their greatest potential.
I work with teens (aged 12 to 18) and strive to maintain a zero judgment zone with whatever your cup of tea is. Teens are early in their journey of self-discovery and need the space to grow and develop who they are, free from stigma or discrimination. This way, as their body may stop growing, they can continue to grow mindfully, hollistically, spiritually, and bloom into the beautiful, amazing people I know they are ready to become.
Even if you do not choose me as your psychotherapist, to help you in achieving your goals, just remember that a flower always turns to the sun. If you had the courage to seek out help, I truly believe that you are on your way to finding the sunlight in your life.
