The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to take up a challenge to state and local laws that ban so-called "conversion therapy" for LGBTQ children.The dispute before the court arose out of a Colorado law that prohibits licensed mental health professionals from engaging in conversion therapy on children who may be questioning their sexual orientation or gender identity.

Brad Reubendale told 9NEWS he underwent conversion therapy as an adult for over a decade. He testified before lawmakers in support of the ban for five years.
