Conversion therapy was the most destructive experience in my life. It is destructive by its very nature, with the practitioner reinforcing the notion that being LGBTQIA is in some way less than desirable. This practice seeks out the most vulnerable people in the LGBTQIA community, or their parents and tells them that something about them is "wrong." No ethical medical or mental health professional should engage in a "therapy" that is so intrinsically destructive; thus, the Board of Medicine should enact this guidance which spells out the unethical and improper nature of "conversion therapy."
