Dr. Greta Heints is a forensic psychiatrist who teaches at Hudson Medical School. She is also a controversial psychotherapist affiliated with the NYPD Parole Division, who had been trying for a number of years to treat sex offenders and cure them, by forcing them through childhood-reversion.
Deeply unpopular with her criminal patients, who tend to find her treatment humiliating, her practice came under scrutiny after she was attacked by Christina Logan, the mother of Robert Logan, one of Heints's non-criminal patients, who believed Christina was his sister. Christina pressed charges against Heints for malpractice and reckless endangerment, but the status of that case remains unknown. (SVU: "Mother")
