It is my understanding that a proposed change would prevent licensed counselors, or religious professionals from providing counseling that might seek to change a person's perceived sexual orientation. It should be clear that such an outright ban would infringe upon many rights--especially those of the person who is seeking to have an orientation changed. It is best to allow those closest to the person needing help--parents, family, pastors, and professional counselors to make such decisions, without the interference of a state bureaucracy.
