The book provides the reader with strategies designed to manage symptoms and maximize success in life and career. Working it Out provides evidence-based approaches, and is informative, casual, and humorous.

About the author: A long-time rehabilitation counseling educator with 25 years of experience in the university and 17 years of prior work as a job placement specialist, Dr. Olney has spent her career researching issues related to disability and employment with a special emphasis on psychiatric disabilities. As a person with bipolar disorder, she is both the author of Working it Out and its main “case study.”
