For people suffering from mental health issues, emotional support animals are a great way to provide treatment and coping mechanisms. Sometimes this emotional support is necessary just to help people function normally, especially for anxiety, depression, and learning disabilities. An emotional support or therapy animal is not quite the same thing as a service animal, which provides physical help to its owner. A therapy animal provides emotional support only.
