Psych Plus has a particular interest in providing Forensic Psychiatric services and the centre boasts an excellent track record in the industry as Dr. Ho is the first person to introduce structured professional judgment (SPJ) violent risk assessment tools in Hong Kong and to validate internationally the most researched SPJ violent risk assessment tool, HCR-20, as well as another SPJ tool, START, in a Chinese population. She also became the principal investigator for Hong Kong in an international research, involving 16 countries including Australia, Canada, U.K., and USA, assessing the practice of violent risk assessment and the use of violent risk assessment tools.

“Forensic psychiatry is a subspecialty in psychiatry. It encompasses the interface between law and psychiatry. The applications of forensic psychiatry are widespread in settings ranging from health care and the workplace to criminal justice and public safety,” says Dr. Ho

In addition to providing general psychiatric services, Dr. Ho also has a reputation for helping the Courts to evaluate an individual’s competency to stand trial, defences based on mental disorders or defects, and sentencing recommendations. She can also act as an expert witness and provide an independent opinion to the court in criminal proceedings.

She remains one of the most sought-after experts in civil litigation, including claims related to psychiatric disability, negligent infliction of emotional harm, post-traumatic stress disorder, testamentary capacity, and various competencies.

The Mediazone Group congratulates Psych Plus Mental Health Centre and Dr. Robyn Ho for winning the Most Valuable Companies in Hong Kong 2022 Award for their contribution to improving mental health in our city. We wish the centre more success.
