Ban conversion therapy immediately!
 

No young person should ever be shamed by a mental health professional  into thinking that who they are is wrong. Mental health care professionals should provide care that is ethical and affirming, for lesbian, gay , bisexual, and transgender young people. If this is not something the mental health care professional can adhere to then they are not fit to be practicing and should not be allowed by the state to damage our children.
