A historical analysis of methodological issues of medical psychology is given. A crisis situation in modern psychology related to the indistinct definition of its object, lack of common theoretical basis, dissociation of theory and practice, disregard of scientific criteria is emphasized. The presented analysis of history of medical psychology shows that its most promising areas developed in dealing with real tasks of medical practice and with reliance on the objective scientific method. It is stressed that when losing relation to practice psychology also loses its object and scientific status. It is suggested that a theoretical comprehension of practical experience and a development of psychological support «technologies» should be employed to cope with the crisis in modern medical psychology.
