Conway's Clinically Rigorous ESA Evaluation Service
From University of Central Arkansas professionals to renters across Downtown Conway and Old Conway — when a companion animal genuinely supports your mental health, a Arkansas-licensed therapist can evaluate whether ESA documentation is therapeutically appropriate. Conway's rental market means three-college rental market with steady student turnover.
Who We Serve in Conway
Conway's renters, professionals, students, and families all use the same licensed, telehealth-first evaluation pathway.
How the Evaluation Works
Each stage exists for one reason: a determination that stands up to scrutiny.
Structured Intake
A validated symptom inventory covering presentation, history, and daily functioning — roughly 10 minutes.
Licensed Review
A Arkansas-licensed clinician evaluates responses against DSM-5-TR-aligned criteria.
Telehealth Consultation
Where clinically indicated, a live video consultation is scheduled — evenings available.
Determination
Documentation is issued within 24–48 hours only when criteria are genuinely met.
Conditions We Clinically Evaluate
ESA documentation is appropriate when a mental health condition meaningfully impairs daily functioning and an animal provides therapeutic benefit.
Anxiety Disorders
Persistent, difficult-to-control worry most days — evaluated against DSM-5-TR criteria by a Arkansas-licensed clinician.
Depressive Disorders
Persistent low mood or markedly diminished interest — evaluated against DSM-5-TR criteria by a Arkansas-licensed clinician.
PTSD & Trauma-Related Conditions
Intrusive memories, nightmares, or flashbacks — evaluated against DSM-5-TR criteria by a Arkansas-licensed clinician.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Intrusive, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges — evaluated against DSM-5-TR criteria by a Arkansas-licensed clinician.

Distinct periods of elevated, expansive, or irritable mood — evaluated against DSM-5-TR criteria by a Arkansas-licensed clinician.

Straight Answers
Direct answers from our clinical team.
Is there a minimum severity to qualify?
No fixed threshold exists. A Arkansas-licensed clinician evaluates whether symptoms are persistent, cause meaningful functional impairment, and whether an ESA is therapeutically appropriate for your situation. A prior diagnosis is not required.
Do Conway landlords have to accept the letter?
The Fair Housing Act covers most Conway rentals. A recognized ESA is not a pet — pet fees and breed limits generally cannot be applied. Narrow exemptions exist for small owner-occupied properties.
How fast is the process?
Intake takes about 10 minutes; documentation follows within 24–48 hours of a completed evaluation when criteria are met. If documentation is not clinically appropriate, you receive a full refund.
Is everything telehealth?
Yes — intake, consultation, and delivery are fully remote, available anywhere in Arkansas.
