Counselor's Rights to Help Clents
 

Do no ban counselors rights to help their clients who want help in dealing with their same sex attractions. Many people have been helped by such counseling.  Banning counselors is tantamount to trampling on the first amendment free speach rights of the client to ask for help and the counselor to give the help.
