| 0:06.0 | And I guess I always sort of knew it, but I never really heard stories about it until recently. |
| 0:12.0 | And so I want to tell you something. |
| 0:15.5 | Did you know that right now in America, in the United States, there are counselors and therapists |
| 0:21.9 | and psychologists who refuse to work with gay clients. |
| 0:28.1 | They refuse to work with LGBTQ clients. Right now in America there are licensed professionals who refuse to work with |
