Rates and Details

Rates

My fee is $150 for a 50 minute session, and $185 for an 80 minute session.

I also offer hormone care planning sessions (hormone readiness assessments). My fee is $280, which includes a 50 minute appointment and my time spent writing the assessment letter. If this fee presents a financial barrier to you accessing gender affirming care, please contact me.

Location

Please note: I am currently primarily offering remote appointments (phone or video). However, if you are interested in an in person appointment, we can discuss this option.

The office where I see clients is located in East Vancouver, near Commercial Drive. For the exact address, please e-mail me. It is not posted online for privacy.

I currently accept cash; cheques payable to Vanessa Fernando; credit card payments; and Interac e-transfer (to vanessa@vanessafernando.com).
