wp query display product categories for custom taxonomy

hi
so i am just trying to figure out a taxonomy query & what i want is when the user lands on the custom taxonomy archive page, i want to display to them all the product categories of the posts (products) for that page. so i want to find all categories & all subcategories for the posts. Custom taxonomy is workplace as below:

so maybe its something like this:

$term = get_queried_object();

$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'tax_query' => array(
        'relation' => 'AND',
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
            'field'    => 'slug'
            ,
        ),
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'workplace',
            'field'    => 'slug',
            'terms'    => $term,
            'operator' => 'IN',
        ),
    ),
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args );

But i just can’t figure out how to ONLY display their categories rather than the actual posts. I had it working perfect through using the woo product loop until i realised it was affecting pagination.
