The origins of the Portman Clinic lie in a report to the Medical Research Council by Dr Grace Pailthorpe. She was concerned with 'what we put in prison' and was a co-founder of the Clinic. The Portman was established at a time when new ideas about the psychological and psychoanalytical treatment of offenders were arousing great excitement. This resulted in the foundation of the Association for the Scientific Treatment of Delinquency. The clinical part of the association opened as the 'Psychophic Clinic' for the out-patient treatment of offenders. By 1949 it was called the Portman Clinic, after its location in Portman Square, and had joined the NHS. The Clinic moved to its present location in Belsize Lane in 1970.
