"What I DID say, is IF a person WANTS counseling, that he shouldn't be denied, because of a political stance, by those who would deny it, based on the 'genetic myth'."


Absolutely. Totally agree. And it's up to the person seeking counselling to decide what it is they most want to accomplish within the counselling (I always focus on short-term objectives that will lead them closer to a longer term goal), and to explore with them the best ways to achieve it. And to also explore how working on some of those objectives might change the goal. Our goals in live do change as we evolve. (Sorry....I'm using that word again).

But I guess I haven't read the posts closely enough, as I never realized that anybody was saying that gay people should be denied counselling.
