Rephrasing.
The boy was in therapy already, presumably his mother had either initiated this or agreed with it. However, she was in the process of taking him out of that therapy because the therapist encouraged homosexual activity. She wanted a therapist that would encourage celibacy. We don't know however whether she found such a therapist, or whether or not her son was in therapy when he committed suicide.

To withhold therapy from your child is something to be blamed for. To want a conservative therapist when you are a conservative mother living in a conservative country is... normal. You can't really blame people for acting like normal. You can disagree with them, sure, as do I. But you can't expect people to foresee and forestall a suicide when it requires extraordinary measures to do so.
