Our phsycological selves are so hard to confine into a measureable predictible form simply because of the complexity of our minds. Just because it's difficult to define or measure our psyche doesn't mean that the attempt cannot be called science. All scientific theory started with a vague hypothesis. We just haven't reached a conclusion yet.
Sensationalism will always grab mysteries to flaunt. That shouldn't lesson the value of studying the mind. We just have to be more careful to discern the quacks from the true scientists.
Real psychology with the purpose of uncovering the mysteries of the mind is science. Psychology that is sensationalized isn't.
