An Emotional Support Animal Housing Letter is a written statement composed by a mental health professional to certify their patient needs the presence of their companion animal at their residence. If your pet offers you emotional support and helps you to handle your mental health issues, you can prove that to your prospective or current landlord by providing them with that letter. You can ask your therapist or psychiatrist to draft you a letter or reach out to a special service that will diagnose you and verify the necessity of an emotional support pet at your house or apartment.
