Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust

The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust is a specialist mental health trust based in north London. The Trust specialises in talking therapies. The education and training department caters for 2,000 students a year from the United Kingdom and abroad. The Trust is based at the Tavistock Centre in Swiss Cottage. The founding organisation was the Tavistock Institute of Medical Psychology founded in 1920 by Hugh Crichton-Miller.

The Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust was formed in 1994, when the Tavistock Clinic merged with the neighbouring Portman Clinic in Fitzjohns Avenue. The Portman specialises in areas of forensic psychiatry, including the treatment of addictive, sociopathic and criminal behaviours and tendencies.

It has developed as a centre for psychoanalysis within the NHS since being included at its founding in 1948.

The Trust and predecessor organisations have been influential beyond medicine, including in the British Army, management consultancy, prison and probation services.

On 9 April 2025, it was announced that the Trust would merge with the newly formed North London NHS Foundation Trust by April 2026, forming one of the largest community and mental health trusts in London. Provided by Wikipedia
