		<description>Hi! 
I have been looking for a therapist who can help work with me and my anxiety issues.  I never travel without my pet- being with out him during trips is reason enough not to go.  Can you recommend a therapist for me in NYC that I can work with on anxiety, and one who will help with the issue of understanding my need for my dog to travel with me?
Thanks

		<description>I have a dog that I took to China with me.  I have had my dog for over 12 years and have been treated for depression and anxiety for 30 years.  I didn't have my dog the first 18 months I was there, and I was wracked by anxiety and had trouble staying on an even keel at times.  After my dog joined me, I was much more calm and centerd - and experienced far less anxiety.  Why is it so hard to find a mental health professional who will write a letter for me identifying my dog as an emotional support animal?  People seem skeptical - I am a high performing individual, but people don't realize the emotional difficulties many of us must grapple with on a daily basis.</description>

		<description>Dear Leslie,

Unfortunately, I do not know of any therapists in the Southern California area that I could recommend. My suggestion to you would be to call your insurance company and ask for a list of doctors/therapists in your area. Spend some time calling each one and asking their offices if their doctors/therapists are familiar with writing letters for those in need of emotional support animals. Sometimes general practitioners will do this for you as well. 

Please let me know how that goes.

All my best,
Dr. KC
