Spiritual Ethics

A Note About Conversion Therapy

Some individuals, families, or guardians may have found us in search of resources to help their loved one that is working through a deeper understanding of themselves and discovered their sexual orientation along the way.

While we are a faith-based organization, we do not provide, nor do we endorse any type of conversion therapy. Conversion therapy is a term used to describe an attempt to change a person’s identity (and/or sexual orientation) through some type of counseling or therapy. Journey considers conversion therapy and its related systems of belief to be unethical and dangerous.

In some jurisdictions conversion therapy is also illegal, due to the documented harm it causes to a persons own mental and spiritual health.

Journey’s policies, procedures and ethical commitments are in line with the Resolution on Appropriate Affirmative Responses to Sexual Orientation Distress and Change Efforts, published by the American Psychological Association in 2022.

More information about the harms of conversion therapy can be found in this resource.
