PSA: Conversion Therapy

This week, Christina and Peggy tackle a sensitive subject - conversion therapy. What it is, the ethics behind it, the research about it, and the recent Supreme Court decision. This is a sensitive subject, so we all encourage gentle listening, and increased self-care. And, more importantly, reach out if you need support!
