Do not criminalize helping people
 

People seeking therapy should be helped - especially young people.  They should not essentially be told that they are wrong for seeking help. 

Also it's not up to the state to enforce fashionable opinions.  If you are allowed to do this, what other unfashionable things are you going to make illegal?
