International Federation for Therapeutic and Counseling Choice

The International Federation for Therapeutic and Counseling Choice (IFTCC) is a London-based organization that internationally lobbies governments and religious organizations to oppose bans on conversion therapy, the pseudoscientific practice of attempting to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity, which has condemned by medical organizations and human rights groups as "unethical, unscientific and ineffective and, in some instances, tantamount to torture." == History and advocacy == The IFTCC is led by Mike Davidson, who describes himself as "ex-homosexual", previously ran the conversion therapy group Core Issues Trust, has practiced conversion therapy on others, and advocates "healing from homosexuality". Davidson has been described as a central figure in the conversion therapy movement and co-directs four organizations providing or advocating conversion therapy.
