This is true. However, the State establishes Governing Bodies who in turn issue licenses to practitioners in the expectation that they do no harm in their work. When in fact they do harm, it is the Governing Body's responsibility to revoke their license and announce that fact.
Note that Mr Helmer's tweet was seemingly prompted by just such a case. He is twisting the facts to suit his apparent bias. Reparative therapy has not been banned, a practitioner or same merely lost hir license.
