Licensed ESA and Psychiatric Service Dog Letters for Texans

Many Texans rely on their animals to manage anxiety, depression, PTSD, panic attacks, and other mental health symptoms. Texas Service Animals connects you with Texas licensed mental health providers who complete real clinical evaluations and, when appropriate, write Emotional Support Animal (ESA) and Psychiatric Service Dog (PSD) letters that you can use with apartments, property managers, HOAs, and college housing across the state.

We focus on clear, compliant documentation that explains your diagnosis, your need for an assistance animal, and how your animal helps you function in daily life. Our goal is to help you keep your animal in stable housing and reduce the stress of arguing with a landlord who does not understand ESA or PSD rules.

ESA and Psychiatric Service Dog Evaluations for Texas Housing

Texas Service Animals helps Texas residents explore whether an Emotional Support Animal or a psychiatric service dog is clinically appropriate for their situation. Evaluations are completed by a Texas licensed psychotherapist, and documentation follows HUD and Fair Housing Act guidance so you can make informed decisions about your housing rights.

One of the main benefits of a valid ESA or psychiatric service dog letter is the ability to request waivers for pet deposits, monthly pet rent, and some breed or weight limits when the animal is part of your treatment plan. Many people qualify for these protections and do not realize it until they talk with a licensed provider about how their animal already helps them cope with stress and symptoms.

ESA Letter for Housing in Texas

An ESA letter may be written for qualifying concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma related symptoms, panic related issues, and other mental health conditions that affect day to day functioning. The focus is on how your animal supports your emotional stability at home.

ESA letters from Texas Service Animals are written specifically for Texas residents and are designed for use with apartments and rental properties that fall under the Fair Housing Act.

Psychiatric Service Dog Evaluation in Texas

A psychiatric service dog provides task based support for conditions such as panic related episodes, PTSD, major depression, and other significant mental health concerns. These dogs are trained to perform specific tasks that help you stay safe, grounded, or able to function.

  • Access to many public spaces and travel when tasks are clearly defined
  • Disability verification for task trained psychiatric service dogs
  • Support for work or school accommodations when appropriate
  • Housing documentation that explains the need for a task trained service dog

How Our Texas ESA and Psychiatric Service Dog Evaluation Process Works

How Texas Landlords Handle ESA and Service Dog Requests

When you ask for an Emotional Support Animal or psychiatric service dog accommodation in Texas, both you and your landlord have specific rights. This guide explains what landlords can ask, what they cannot require, and how to talk about your ESA or service dog in a clear and confident way.

📋What Texas Landlords Are Allowed To Ask

  • They can ask if the animal is an assistance animal that supports a disability.
  • They can request reasonable documentation from a licensed Texas mental health professional when your disability is not obvious.
  • They can ask basic questions about the animal’s behavior, vaccinations, and whether it is housebroken and under control.
  • They can remind you that you are responsible for any damage your animal causes and for cleaning up after the animal.
  • For service dogs, they may ask what tasks the dog is trained to perform that help with your condition.

Example script: “I have an assistance animal that helps with my mental health symptoms. I am requesting a reasonable accommodation for housing and I have documentation from a Texas licensed provider if you would like to review it.”

🚫What Texas Landlords Cannot Ask or Require

  • They cannot demand your full medical records or a list of medications.
  • They cannot require you to share your exact diagnosis label if you provide valid documentation.
  • They cannot insist on online registrations, ID cards, or special vests as proof of an ESA or psychiatric service dog.
  • For a qualified ESA or assistance animal, they generally cannot charge pet deposits, monthly pet rent, or extra pet fees.
  • They cannot deny an ESA or service dog only because of breed or weight if the animal can live safely on the property.

Example script: “My ESA letter explains that an assistance animal is part of my treatment plan. I am happy to provide the letter, but my health details and diagnosis are private. I am only requesting the accommodation that Fair Housing law allows.” For more common questions about ESA and psychiatric service dog evaluations in Texas, visit our Frequently Asked Questions page.
