Kathleen’s Public Comments at BHEC Council 10-15-24
My name is Kathleen Mills, Co-Founder of AHMP. Our country and our liberties are in real trouble. We have some existential problems as a nation and our counseling profession is in the direct line of fire.
The legacy professional organizations, accrediting bodies, insurance companies and academia want to run this profession and they’re in the process of destroying it in their takeover. They’ve abandoned the evidence-based approach for a subjective ideology as their standard, and if you subscribe to any organization that promotes woke ideologies or tyranny in any form, then you’re funding the problem.
From The Council
I want this Council to do its part in returning the entire counselor supply chain to an evidence-based model. Texas is moving away from the woke ideology through legislation and so should you. I don’t envy you that task, but you helped create it, so you get to fix your part in it.
I want The Council to be a solid line of defense against the assault on my 1st Amendment conscience rights. The courts view my beliefs as “property rights” and any rule you pass that represents a threat to those beliefs may be considered a “moral injury” and could land you in court.
I want this Council and the Boards to WAKE UP and recognize your legacy professional organizations that many of you belong to, are promoting woke agendas that are normalizing mental illness in the pursuit of something called transhumanism. This is a slippery slope that sees the normalization and assumed acceptance from a sleeping public, of a never-ending list of “improvements” to be made to the human condition.
It’s a slow-drip process of altering the human form at the cellular level, includes puberty and hormone blockers, and surgeries to match the physical with the client’s dysphoric perception. It also includes the implanting of chips to connect us to the internet and many other invasive medical attempts at improving the imperfections of our Creator God. While the younger generation views this as just another cool gadget to play with I hope there are still enough of us over 35 left to see this for what it really is and speak up. We must stop this madness before it gains more traction.
From the Boards
I want the public members of our boards to stand up to the professional members. Question everything! Don’t be intimidated. You’re here to help BHEC keep the professional members on the rails. If you do your job right you may feel ostracized or even bullied but that’s the job you signed up for.
Summary
“Business-as-usual” is not the theater we’re living in now, and it’s not likely to return in our lifetimes. We need generals and warriors on our boards, and public members with the backbone to ask the hard questions and then vote accordingly. We’re in a very real war. Our profession has been hijacked just like the medical community, and I want my profession back.
