Bio:
Alexandra Mouangue is a research coordinator for Stephanie Manasse, PhD., working primarily on Project ONWARD and co-facilitating therapeutic groups for Project WATCH. She graduated from Wellesley College in 2024 with a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in Economics. During her undergraduate studies, Alexandra explored topics at the intersect of cultural and clinical psychology. Her honors thesis investigated the impact of limited resource predictability on impulsive decision-making (greater temporal discounting) for individuals from low social class backgrounds. Alexandra aims to further explore the implications of sociocultural variables on intervention development and treatment access for marginalized populations. She plans to pursue a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with a focus on anxiety disorders, researching the efficacies of integrative treatments that incorporate mindfulness-based modalities for conditions like OCD and PTSD.
