Dr. Mancebo received a B.A. from Providence College, a M.A from Connecticut College, and a Ph.D. from Hofstra University. Following a clinical internship at St. Barnabas Hospital in New York, she completed a post-doctoral fellowship with the OCD Research Program at Brown University under the mentorship of Drs. Steven Rasmussen and Jane Eisen.
Dr. Mancebo is a clinical psychologist at Butler Hospital and directs the OCD and Anxiety Intensive Outpatient Program. She is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at Brown and trains psychology and psychiatry residents in cognitive-behavioral therapies for OCD, anxiety, and compulsive hoarding. Her primary research interests focus on implementing evidence-based therapies in community settings, treatment adherence, and developing behavioral interventions for individuals with OCD that do not currently benefit from treatment.
