Answer a few questions about your ESA needs
Many Texans struggle with mental health challenges and seek out the comfort of an emotional support animal. At Pettable we can connect you with compassionate mental health professionals to write you legitimate ESA letters, ensuring you are never seperated from your support animal.
Let's get you the support you deserve.
If you need an emotional support animal in your life, you should consider getting an ESA letter. Most ESA-owners use their official ESA letters to show others, like their landlord, that they have a need for their emotional support animal. The process of getting a letter shouldn't be long or difficult. The easiest way to get an emotional support animal letter in Georgia is by consulting with a licensed mental health professional online in your state. This way, you can avoid the hassle of waiting in any long lines or traffic to meet with someone in person. Connect with a licensed mental health professional (LMHP) through Pettable today!

Anyone with a mental or emotional disability has the option to obtain an emotional support animal. These mental or emotional disabilities can include depression, anxiety, chronic stress, and many others. If you are unsure about whether the presence of an emotional support animal would improve your condition, it is best to speak with your doctor to learn more.
ESA owners can use their letters to show their landlords that their ESAs can improve their emotional or mental conditions. Georgia ESA laws and federal law protect your rights as an ESA owner to live anywhere with your emotional support animal, provided you have a legitimate ESA letter written by an LMHP.
Emotional support animals in Georgia are typically only allowed in pet-friendly public places and their home, with an official ESA letter. Your landlord must provide reasonable accommodations if you have an official ESA letter. If your animal causes harm to the property or to other residents, your landlord may decide not to accommodate you and your ESA. The rules can vary a little depending on where you are.
Public places are legally obligated to only admit service animals into most public accommodations, like shops or restaurants. But you may persuade an establishment to be willing to accommodate you if you show your emotional support animal letter and explain your situation. Depending on the establishment, they may accommodate you and your emotional support animal. You never know until you ask!
According to the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA), this applies to your workplace and airline flights. If your emotional support animal is refused accommodation on a flight, you could have them fly with you as an ordinary pet. Alternatively, you could consider training them to be a psychiatric service dog.
Fortunately, the federal Fair Housing Act (FHA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) stipulate that housing providers (even in no-pets housing) must reasonably accommodate both service animals and emotional support animals.
The FHA indicates that, as long as you have a valid ESA letter, your landlord must allow you to live with your emotional support animal, waiving any pet fees or breed or weight restrictions. It’s important for people living with emotional disabilities or any mental health condition to get the support they need.
Getting an emotional support animal is one way to do that, but before you get an ESA, there are a few ways to know if you qualify for an ESA in Georgia.
To qualify for an emotional support animal in Georgia, your LMHP must evaluate your symptoms to determine if you have an emotional or mental disability that would improve with an ESA. You’ll have the opportunity to share your concerns or thoughts regarding your mental or emotional health with a licensed medical professional. They’ll have the expertise to determine your medical needs and possible treatments.
Your doctor will write an ESA letter to make your emotional support animal an official part of your mental health treatment plan if you qualify for an emotional support animal. Once you have your official ESA letter, you will be able to show your letter to your landlord. Once you share your official letter with your landlord, they cannot charge you extra pet deposits or pet fees because you have an ESA.
Georgia residents with certain mental or emotional conditions that can prevent them from living their life to the fullest may benefit from the presence of an emotional support animal. Here are three benefits of ESAs for Georgia residents:
If you have an emotional support animal by your side, they will always be there to comfort you in your home. Emotional support animals are sometimes referred to as companion animals because they are constant companions for their owners. An emotional support animal can help you combat feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions.
An emotional support animal helps your physical well-being in many ways. You may feel calm or relaxed when your emotional support animal is near you. These are indicators that your support animal is doing its job well. You can also experience a normalized heart rate and blood pressure, reduced stress, and alleviated emotions of loneliness.
In the presence of your emotional support animal, you will notice an overall improved outlook in your daily life. The daunting feelings that accompany chronic stress, severe anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder will have less of an impact on your life with an emotional support animal by your side. Companion animals provide assistance to their owners in a way that many people may not see, but each ESA owner can certainly feel the positive impact of the presence of their furry friend.
If you feel that your struggles go beyond mental or emotional health, you may benefit from the presence of a specially trained psychiatric service dog. Psychiatric service dogs offer comfort to their owners in a way that requires training, so they differ slightly from emotional support animals.
There is a simple process to get a psychiatric service dog letter in Georgia. One of the best and quickest ways to get a psychiatric service dog is to use a trustworthy site that can virtually connect you to a therapist in Georgia. For example, Pettable offers quick, easy, and reliable service.
To get a PSD letter in Georgia, you will need to complete a short 3-minute assessment. This assessment will give mental health professionals an idea of your needs. Once you complete the assessment, Pettable will match you with a therapist in Georgia. Then you’ll meet with this mental health professional over video call to discuss your needs. After that, you will receive your PSD letter. If your PSD letter is not approved, you will receive a 100% of your payment.
