IMMERSIVE GENDER EXPRESSION CARE

You define the vision.
We help you get there.

This is a white-glove, tailored-to-you, in-person experience. I help you reach your goals in a condensed timeframe (typically 1-3 days, depending on your needs). 

More than a day of glamour, our aim is not to create a caricature of gender but to illuminate who you truly are, bringing to light your authentic self–from the inside out.

This service is only offered a handful of times per year due to the intensive nature of the process.

What happens in an Immersive?

In our sessions, you will learn to appreciate your emotional and physical self, build confidence, and gain the skills to help you embody your gender and allow you to thrive in pursuit of your dreams and desires.

Our lessons will not wash away upon removing your makeup or changing your clothes. Instead, you will feel self-sufficient and capable of expressing your true self each day.

    "Monica really knows what she's doing and has a magical way of imparting her knowledge so you can apply it yourself. Her energy and wit make the time spent with her that much more enjoyable. I could not be more pleased with the results."

    "In addition to remarkable skill as a makeup artist and perfect pitch when it comes to fashion, Monica also brings to the table a genuine understanding of the fears that all transgender women face. It took just a few short hours for her to completely reconstruct my look. With that came an incredible elevation in confidence."

    "Monica has been instrumental in my feminine development and maturity. I have bloomed from a wallflower that was afraid to be seen in public to a confident female ready to greet the world. She has helped me be proud of who I am."

    "I wouldn't be the confident and happy person I am today without the support and encouragement of Monica Prata. Monica showed me how to express my femininity without sacrificing my attitude or personal style and helped me create an image that is 100% my own."

The Process

Featured

Step One

Apply

Complete the application form at the bottom of this page and pay the processing fee. The processing fee is $99.

Step Two

Hang Tight

Applications are reviewed quarterly. A team member will be in touch with you to discuss your application status and scheduling. You can expect a response time of up to 90 days.

In the meantime, you may consider our group offerings.

Step Three

Interview

Meet with Monica to discuss your goals for the Immersive. She will evaluate whether the immersive model is right for you. The fee for this initial consult is $499. If you mutually agree to move ahead, Monica will present you with a proposal for the service, and you will pay a 50% nonrefundable deposit to hold the slot in her schedule.

Step Four

Prep

We will meet in advance to create the agenda and to plan any appointments you may need with other specialists (for example, hair stylists, doctors, etc.). We will schedule your Immersive dates and make travel plans as needed.

Step Five

Show Up

With everything already carefully planned out, we’ll dive right in. There is generally a lot to do (but we’ll have lots of fun doing it).

Step Six

Celebrate

We often cap off all your hard work with a fully-expressed outing together, for example, with a night on the town. We’ll bask in the glow of feeling fully you.

Start your journey.

  • Monica often travels to work with her clients where they live. That way you can get familiar with local resources.

    However, there are also some times when clients prefer to travel to Monica. In this case, the location would be either San Francisco or New York City.

  • Typically your Immersive will be 1-3 days. However, there are circumstances where it may be more or less time. We will discuss this during the initial proposal phase.

  • The demand for Monica’s services is far greater than her schedule will allow.

    Her primary focus is bringing Gender Expression Care to more people through her group workshops. Because of this, she can only schedule a handful of Immersives per year.

  • The investment typically starts at $3,000 (USD). Monica and her team will create a customized proposal just for you based upon factors unique to you, for example:

    • Travel distance
    • Duration of service
    • Coordination time with other specialists

  • The fee does not include the cost of items such as cosmetics, skincare products, and clothing.

    However, if you desire, we will set a budget range for all of these items as part of our initial planning process.

    One of Monica’s talents is creating a top-notch wardrobe, cosmetic, and skincare routine at any price point.

  • Monica’s travel fees are not included in the service fee. Travel expenses such as flights and lodging will be in addition.
