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?
In order to travel undisturbed with your Emotional Support Dog, you need an ESA letter. Many businesses, including airlines, hotels, and restaurants will not allow your dog access without it. Many apartment buildings with no-pet policies also require an ESA.
If you are unsure whether you need an ESA letter, we encourage you to check with the place(s) of business in which you would like to bring your emotional support animal. As of 2020, most domestic airlines do require ESA letters.
-
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 Skype 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 full refund.
-
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 ACAA and allow you to bring an emotional support animal with you in the cabin of an airplane and 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 or quick consultation. These are typically not accepted by landlords or airlines and may even be illegal, especially in California where new rules came into effect in 2022. 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 full refund and refer you to other services that may be able to help.
