Your Partner in Rethinking Your Workplace!

Transform your workplace with the Workplace Liberation Lab—where equity, innovation, and wellness intersect. Our holistic approach fosters collaboration, strengthens communication, and empowers teams to build a culture of belonging and meaningful growth.

Where Equity, Innovation, and Well-Being Converge

Experience the transformative power of the Workplace Liberation Lab. Born from our roots as therapists and equity-driven leaders, we create spaces for healing, innovation, and systemic change.

The Workplace Liberation Lab was built on the belief that work should be a space of possibility, not just productivity. We understand that traditional workplace structures often reinforce harm, exclusion, and burnout—so we’re here to challenge and reimagine them.

Through interactive workshops, strategic coaching, and ongoing support, we help organizations dismantle barriers, foster belonging, and cultivate cultures where people and ideas thrive. With a foundation in mental health, liberation psychology, and organizational change, our approach equips teams with the tools to create workplaces that are equitable, sustainable, and radically human.

    Gaina, Framingham BSU

  • “And Still We Rise has been a welcomed partner…to provide guidance and services to BIPOC families following a racially-motivated hate crime. They were able to quickly pull together a team of professional in the direct aftermath to support the families in this tragedy.
