In his day, Sigmund Freud's theories were considered state-of-the-art and were widely accepted by physicians and other professional. With the exception perhaps of his theories on defense mechanisms, most of Freud's approaches have been rejected.

How does this issue relate to this module's discussion of best practice? Be specific. Give examples.
