Banning any counseling on unwanted same-sex attraction is unconstitutional
 

To deny a counsellee the information that unwanted same sex attraction can be overcome is forcing a viewpoint that is harmful - the objective of counseling should be to give alternatives and provide support to the counsellee's decision.  Denying the counselor's right to speak freely of all the alternatives is inherently unconstitutional.
