Conversion therapy is quackery
 

The idea that banning conversion therapy has anything to do with freedom of speech or religion is a specious argument. What this is about is licensed practioners being properly regulated by their board. Conversion therapy is harmful and widely recognized as quackery. Your board certified physician is not allowed to practice voodoo and licensed counselors should not be allowed to engage in the quackery of conversion therapy.
