Abstract
Relying primarily on Weiss and Sampson's control‐mastery theory (Sampson, 1976, 1991; Silberschatz, 2005; Weiss, 1986, 1993), I briefly describe how psychopathology develops and then discuss how patients1 work in psychotherapy to master their problems and conflicts. My focus is on two particular concepts: the patient's plan for therapy and the patient's testing of the therapist during psychotherapy.
