Prohibits certain mental health professionals from engaging in conversion therapy with minors

This bill prohibits licensed mental health professionals from performing conversion therapy on minors, which is defined as any treatment attempting to change a young person's sexual orientation or gender identity. The law explicitly excludes supportive counseling that helps individuals cope with their identity or undergo gender transition, provided such sessions do not aim to alter sexual or romantic attractions. If a professional violates this rule, the licensing committee can file a complaint that may lead to disciplinary actions such as censure, probation, suspension, or revocation of their license. Parents, guardians, and close family members who paid for the treatment have the right to file complaints or present evidence regarding these violations.
