Psychotherapists have a love-hate relationship with theories, often clinging to those that are unsatisfying and incomplete.

Moreover, deconstruction of the positive and negative elements of theory reveals therapists' uncertainty as they acknowledge that one of their compasses resides somewhere between myth and truth.
