Can I get an ESA letter or disability assessment by taking an online test or survey, or do I need an in-person or phone session with a licensed provider?

Yes, an Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letter or recommendation can be issued based on a professional psychological assessment conducted online. Our licensed healthcare providers utilize validated tools such as the DSM-5 Type I and II Symptom Cross-Cutting Measures, developed by the American Psychiatric Association, and the World Health Organization’s WHODAS 2.0.

It is increasingly common across various areas of telehealth to provide clinical assessments and even formal diagnoses without requiring in-person or video sessions. For example, platforms offering ADHD evaluations (ADHD Online) and weight loss drug prescriptions (Zappy Health) often rely on online questionnaires and surveys without any face-to-face or telephone interaction.

Similarly, for ESA letters, federal law does not require a formal psychological diagnosis or ongoing treatment from a licensed provider. Instead, a provider may issue an ESA recommendation based on established psychological assessment tools that are widely accepted in the mental health field.
We have issued over 250,000 ESA letters, with an acceptance rate exceeding 96%
