I will ask my therapist if she will do it if that is all I need.

Correct, there is NO official registration needed for either Service Dogs or ES dogs. It sounds like you do not need a SD, you need an Emotional Support dog. ESDs are not necessarily allowed everywhere a SD is, just so you know. You don't need a letter from your therapist unless you are flying -- if you ARE flying, you can bring your ESD on board without a crate -- however you DO need a letter and I believe it has to be from a psychiatrist (an M.D.), not a therapist.
