From what we were discussing a week or two ago, here's another that believes homosexuals should be able to seek therapy, and this one is the current president of the APA:

Dr. Koocher stated, "APA has no conflict with psychologists who help those distressed by unwanted homosexual attraction."

And he was surrounded by President-Elect Sharon Stephens Brehm, CEO Norman Anderson and other prominent members of the American Psychological Association (APA)

That should go a long way towards educating folks that change is possible.

I'll believe them when 1) they go back and issue errata for all of the volumes of propaganda they've published over the years (such as this one: "Just the Facts About Sexual Orientation & Youth: A Primer for Principals, Educators and School Personnel), and 2) when they issue a positiion statement that reflects their new views on ex-gay related therapy at the next NEA national convention.
