Dr. Kerri Anderson attended University of La Verne and earned a B.A in Criminology in 2015. She completed her M.A. in Forensic Psychology in 2017, a M.A. in Clinical Psychology in 2020, and received her Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in forensic psychology in 2023 from California Baptist University in Riverside, CA. Her dissertation focused on the impact of military sexual trauma on female veterans and their intimate partner relationships. She is currently a member of the American Psychological Association.
Dr. Anderson provides services and coverage to WSH’s Multiple Needs, BA/BI units, and geriatric patients throughout the hospital. Dr. Anderson has a special interest in geriatrics, as well as the intersection of forensic psychology and the aging population, severe and persistent mental illness, and psychological assessments.
Dr. Anderson has adopted an assimilative integrated approach in which she relies on psychodynamic theory as her foundation while integrating interventions from other theoretical orientations- primarily dialectical behavior therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. Her supervision style follows the integrated developmental approach, and she adapts her supervision approach to match the needs of her supervisee’s level of experience.
In her spare time, Dr. Anderson enjoys yoga, Pilates, traveling, her family and her Great Dane.
