(AP) LOS ANGELES -- Isaiah Washington does the healing as a doctor on "Grey's Anatomy." But he's the patient now, in therapy for his use of an anti-gay slur against a castmate.

In a statement Wednesday, Washington said he has begun counseling in what he describes as a "necessary step toward understanding why I did what I did and making sure it never happens again."

Washington took a break from filming Wednesday to meet with gay rights activists.

Series creator and executive producer Shonda Rhimes issued her own statement, at once criticizing Washington for calling co-star T.R. Knight a gay and lauding Washington's decision to seek help.

kudos to washington for speaking his mind- boo to washington for not standing by it. This 'homo-phobic' label has got to stop- we respect anyone that respects our right not to like the sin of homosexuality- that includes respecting gay folks who respect our right. I don't like efemanent acting men or butch acting women- frankly it turns my stomach and I'll not apologize for feeling thAT way. If a person is gay- fine- keep it to themselves- I don't weant to hear about it- no more so then I want to hear about anyone elses personal life- striaght or otherwise. I'll never approve of the sin and don't expect me to- I will respect a person as an individual outside of their sexual orientation as long as they keep their personal affairs to themselves and understand that I don't approve of deviance. I'll not drink out of the same cup, nor share anythign with someone who lives a deviant life- and that includes everyone hetero or otherwise- I'll simply not take the chance- that is either ok with folks or it's not and frankly I don't care if it is or not. The end, amen, carry on.

Rehab for using a anti-gay slur? This is insane. And now a few papers have dropped Ann's column because of this?

Lord...
