I think you may be behind the times when it comes to psychology. Modern psychology looks down on Freud and isn't based on it at all. As of a couple of decades ago, parts of psychology would probably be well classified as pseudoscience, but that isn't the case anymore. The ~generally assume~ is an interesting bit. Dictionary definitions of the term typically go with something more like "practices which claim to be scientific". Its not terribly fair to philosophers to call them practicers of pseudoscience just because the layperson sees "physics" and assumes "metaphysics" must be science. But, then again, life isn't fair. Metaphysics is a pretty misleading name.
