mission
Unfortunately, traditional healthcare doesn’t treat mental and physical health concomitantly. Over-prescribing and 5-minute visits have become standard. We created Gro because we didn’t want this for ourselves or our patients. We understand the importance of the mind-body connection. Many conditions stem from engrained thoughts and behaviors learned in early life. In understanding the clients "why", we can uncover the root of the problem and discover sustainable solutions that work. Gro providers are skilled in mental health evaluation, psychiatric medication management, nutrition and lifestyle coaching tailored to an individual’s needs and goals. Are you ready to feel your best? Come Gro with us!

Justin Goodman
Justin Goodman, RD, is a board-certified registered and licensed dietitian in the state of Maryland. Justin holds a Bachelor of Science in Business from Towson University and Bachelor of Science in Dietetics from Morgan State University. He completed a dietetic internship focusing on medical nutrition therapy and sports nutrition with Onnit, EXOS, Towson University, Mission Fit, and Doctor’s Community Hospital.
Justin is currently accepting new patients with diverse needs, including body composition (weight loss, weight gain, and weight maintenance), athletic nutrition optimization, medical nutrition therapy, and disordered eating. He understands there is no “one size fits all” in nutrition. That’s why Justin develops treatment plans that are tailored to an individual’s goals and lifestyle.
In his spare time, he enjoys playing live music as a bassist, pickleball and weight lifting. He has an extensive vintage bass collection, including one of the first three precision basses to leave the Fender factory in 1951.
