Conversion therapy or reparative therapy is defined as any therapeutic attempt to change an individual's sexual orientation to heterosexual. That is, historical and presently around the world gay, lesbian and bisexual people have been subjected to conversion therapy or reparative therapy which can results in serious negative outcomes including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, relationships challenges, and sexual dysfunction (e.g., Haldeman, 2001; Shidlo & Schroeder, 2002; Beckstead & Morrow, 2004; Glassgold et al., 2009). According to the policy statement put forth by the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA), "There is no evidence that the negative effects of conversion or reparative therapy counterbalance any distress caused by the social stigma and prejudice these individuals may experience." As such, the CPA put forth a statement opposing the application of conversion and reparative therapies citing many of the harms this type of therapy causes to sexual minority individuals. Given the evidence of the dangers of conversion and reparative therapies and the fact that is continues to occur it is important for psychology as a discipline and psychologists as individuals to recognize that this form of treatment violates our codes of ethics. The codes clearly state to do no harm. As such, the presenter will review the historic and current research related to these types of therapies and will argue they need to be discontinued and deemed unethical. As well, recommendation for sexuality affirming care will be put forth.
