“The federal court in the Federal District has granted an injunction that allows psychologists to treat gays and lesbians as patients and to make “sexual reversal” therapies, without any censorship or sanctions from the Federal Psychological Council. The decision was made on Friday (15) by federal judge Waldemar Cláudio de Carvalho, after action by psychologists favorable to this type of therapy. In a statement, the CFP, which is contrary to the measure, says that the action “represents a violation of human rights and has no scientific basis.“ He also says that he will appeal the decision.”
