Professional Workplace & Academic Accommodations Documentation Services
Having a mental health condition shouldn't hold back your career. At Psych Advisor, our licensed psychotherapists can help you get the academic and workplace accommodations you need through proper mental health documentation. We know how to write ADA workplace accommodations letters that employers actually accept because we understand both the clinical side and the legal requirements, as well as letters for college administrators to get you what you need to thrive.
What Are Mental Health Workplace Accommodations?
Workplace accommodations are changes to your job or work environment that help you do your job despite a mental health condition. Under ADA law, employers have to provide reasonable accommodations if you have documentation from a licensed mental health professional.
Our mental health accommodation services help bridge the gap between your clinical needs and your professional requirements, ensuring you receive appropriate support while maintaining your privacy and career advancement opportunities.
What Are Mental Health Academic Accommodations?
Academic accommodations are changes your college or university enacts to help you have equitable access to your coursework. According to federal law, colleges and universities provide an extensive range of accommodations to help students have the same access to courses, professors, and their overall coursework.
Our services include getting an evaluation, receiving documentation of your mental health needs, and writing to the university or college’s administration to ensure you have the support you need while remaining as private as possible within the academic space. From there, professors and other instructors give you the accommodations you require.

Common Questions About Mental Health Academic and Workplace Accommodations
Q: Can my employer or university ask for my full medical records
A: No. While your employer or university may ask for documentation that confirms your disability and explains what accommodations you need, they cannot demand detailed medical records.
Q: What if my college administration or boss says no to my accommodation request?
A: Employers have to provide reasonable accommodations unless they cause "undue hardship." If they refuse reasonable requests, you may be able to file a complaint with the EEOC.
Q: Will this hurt my career?
A: Most accommodations are invisible to coworkers and don't affect your ability to advance. Many people find that accommodations actually improve their job performance.
Q: How long does it take to get accommodations approved?
A: Once you submit your mental health documentation, the interactive process should start promptly. Most accommodations can be put in place fairly quickly.
