ESA Letter FAQs

  • What is an ESA Letter?
    An Emotional Support Animal letter is an official document from a licensed mental health professional certifying that you require your animal as part of your treatment.
  • Why do I need an ESA letter?

    An ESA letter is essential for exercising your housing rights with your Emotional Support Dog. Under the Fair Housing Act, landlords and property managers must provide reasonable accommodations for tenants with a valid ESA letter. Many apartment buildings with no-pet policies also require an ESA letter.

    If you are unsure whether you need an ESA letter, we encourage you to check with your landlord or property manager.

  • How do I get an ESA letter?

    If you need an Emotional Support Animal Letter and do not regularly see a therapist that can prescribe you one, we can connect you with a mental health professional for a video call evaluation. If appropriate, the therapist will prescribe an ESA letter, which will be sent to you electronically via our secure HIPAA-compliant portal.

    Click “Add to Cart” in order to start the process. Once you pay, a therapist will be randomly assigned to you. They will follow up with you to schedule a time that is convenient for you for your first evaluation which will take place through Zoom or FaceTime. Multiple sessions may be required for the therapist to fully understand your condition, but this is rare.

    As this is a referral to an outside practitioner for teletherapy session(s), no guarantee is made that the practitioner will deem your condition worthy of an ESA letter. Each case is unique. However, if the therapist declines to issue an ESA letter to you, you will be entitled to a refund less a $35 consultation fee.

  • Is getting an ESA letter through you legitimate?

    Yes! Our ESA Letters are valid in all 50 states. Our therapists only prescribe a letter if they deem it necessary after a real evaluation. Your letter will be good for one year and will satisfy the requirements set forth by the FHA and allow you to bring an emotional support animal into your apartment or dorm room.

    You may renew your ESA letter after it expires directly with your therapist.

  • Why are other ESA letters less expensive?

    Many other websites provide cheap letters from a template after having you fill out a short questionnaire. These are typically not accepted by landlords and may even be illegal. We seek to refer you to real, licensed therapists for teletherapy sessions. Consequently, an ESA therapist may not be available in your area and should that be the case, we will issue you a refund and refer you to other services that may be able to help.
