Elaine Goode

About Elaine

I've been a Dietitian for over a decade, and have had to learn to juggle life, work and health! I'm a wife and mom of young kids, so I know how busy things can get! I’m originally from Ireland but have settled in NC and enjoy the beautiful Spring and Fall weather (but the sun is not for me!). Professional areas of focus for me have included acute care, surgery and kidney function, with special interest in weight inclusivity, intuitive eating and women’s health.

Approach to care

For me, food is much more than fuel- it is connection and celebration, and this must be honored when we start to incorporate lifestyle changes. My goal is to keep things simple and practical. My approach to care is non-judgmental and weight inclusive. The client is in the driver's seat- I'm here to support the journey!

Your first session with Elaine

I will ask lots of questions to get to know you and your goals. It is helpful to start by learning what your current habits are, and if applicable what has worked well for you in the past. I want to know about your current lifestyle and schedule, so that I can provide practical suggestions that fit into your day/week. And I love to talk about food of course! If you do not see an opening on my schedule, message me in the portal or email me at elaine.goode@usenourish.com to see if I have any blocked times we can open up for you.
