They have allowed chiropractors to continue their dangerous scam for decades, so you probably could've gotten away with that even before this.
Chiropractors: why yes, I’m a mental health professional myself.

Honestly they'd probably be doing less harm if that's what they did.
There's zero scientific or empirical evidence that conversion therapy is safe and effective, but there is definite evidence of the opposite. That's why it's banned. Is attaching leeches to people still allowed on free speech grounds?

It's still a valid medical procedure for reattaching fingers. https://www.tgh.org/institutes-and-services/treatments/leech-therapy
Oh so this applies to gender-affirming therapy too... right?
So conversion therapy for straight kids will also be allowed right.
So, uh conversion therapy falls under free speech ... but if someone claims to feel at home with lgbtq is not free speech?
I think some red states might actually benefit from therapists that specialize in helping people feel comfortable with their sexuality.
No that's gender-affirming care, that's banned

Oh fuck off
We need religious liberation therapy, if anything, to get people out of believing in these harmful fairytales
Mandatory SLT (Straight Liberation Therapy), seems like a viable use case as well.
Bribing politicians? Also free speech!
Yeeeahh . . . That’s the ticket!
