Pets are companions who lower anxiety, decrease depression, abate loneliness, and increase functioning as a non-sighted, lowed sighted, or needs-based individual. For housing, planes, trains, buses, work environments, travel accommodations, and public locations that usually discourage pets, you can acquire a certification that a pet is an emotional support animal.
Dr. Carol Francis has provided the psychological evaluations for certifying the need for an emotional support animal. Usually, the evaluation is 4 sessions long, includes a written assessment and a recommendation which can be taken to the location where you are requesting special circumstances for having your pet. Several steps are taken for authentication –
- Meeting the pet and the pet’s person
- Assessing the situations where the certification is being requested
- Establishing correlation between a person’s well-being and the presence of the pet
- Psychological evaluations which are authenticating and professionally scored
- mental status exam
- history of concerns
- psychological testing
- trauma assessment
