"Conversion Therapy" has never been properly defined. Under this vague term, many good, evidence based counseling practices could be banned.
The proposed ban is a violation of the American Counseling Association's Code of Ethics which states that counseling plans are to be determined jointly by counselors and their clients. Counseling plans are personal and should not be dictated by others.
