ABOUT OPEN SPACE CCW + WHY NUTRITION MATTERS HERE :

Open Space CCW was founded in 2018 with a vision of creating a safe, inclusive, and progressive space where people can move from merely surviving to truly thriving-for both our providers and our clients. We created a safe space for affirming, equity-rooted mental health care that never asks anyone to shrink or mask to belong. We are advocates, and practice from an anti-oppressive framework, which means we call out bullsh!t when we see it and work to disrupt systems that are harmful.

Open Space CCW was born from a simple but radical belief : healing happens when people feel safe to be fully themselves. We've spent years creating that safety in mental health care, and now we're expanding into nutrition—because we know food, bodies, and identity are inseparable.

We grew fast, faced challenges, rebuilt intentionally, and emerged with a clear direction : A multidisciplinary wellness collective where dietitians, therapists, body-workers, and other healers collaborate under one roof, united by our commitment to anti-oppressive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, HAES-informed care that never asks anyone to shrink—literally or figuratively.

Our approach to nutrition is rooted in :

If you believe nutrition counseling should center joy and intuition rather than restriction and shame—this is where you belong.

WHY THIS MODEL IS UNIQUE FOR DIETITIANS :

Most RDs in Pennsylvania are stuck choosing between two broken models :

We've created something different :

1099 Independence + Business Mentorship + Values-Aligned Community

We're not interested in creating another nutrition practice. We're building a space where you can practice the kind of nutrition therapy you actually believe in, with the business support to make it sustainable.

This is your chance to build a practice that feels authentically yours, with colleagues who share your values and clients who want what you're offering. No more code-switching. No more compromising your beliefs for a paycheck.

A SPACE DESIGNED FOR RADICAL NUTRITION CARE :

If you wish to work fully remotely but live local to Pittsburgh, you'll have your own private office space for individual sessions, access to a tech-ready group room for workshops and classes, a full kitchen , and all the practical support you need—from secure parking to 24 / 7 building access.

But more importantly, you'll be surrounded (both in-person and virtually) by providers who understand that health isn't a moral obligation, that all bodies deserve respect, and that nutrition care should be liberating, not restrictive.

Every provider here is vetted for values alignment. Your clients will never encounter diet culture messaging in our waiting room. Your colleagues won't undermine your work by promoting weight stigma.

You're safe here. Your clients are safe here. And together, we're changing what nutrition care and wellness looks like.
