Hello Karena,

I have worked in the gay community in Toronto for years and have many friends that are Transgendered.

There are some NLP techniques that I know of that work for something like this.

Having the client think of a role model, someone that they would like to be more like. (In this case a male figure)
It could be someone they know or an actor etc.

Then have them close their eyes and imagine they are in a movie theatre.
Within the movie theatre they can see a movie playing on the screen of the person that they want to be more like. Ask them to imagine what that person looks like, sounds like, the feeling they get from watching them, have them notice all the little nuances, this persons energy. when they can acheive this ask them to nod their head or set up ideomotor signals for yes. (Suggest they only see this person doing the positive things they admire.)

Have them rewind the movie all the way to the beginning, have them replace the image of the person in the movie with an image of themselves. Have them imagine watching themselves doing exactly what they just watched their role model do. Have them see themselves doing all of the behaviours and acting like the person they admire. Notice how easy it is.

Once again have them rewind the movie, and then have them step into it, feeling this image absorb into the muscles, fibers and cells of their body, feel what it feels like, hear what it sounds like etc. Then have them anchor it in giving some sort of physical signal.

Then future pace out in the future using this new pattern of behaving. Getting them to visualize, hear and feel everything.

It works like a charm for confidence. I am positive it would work for something like this.
Hope that helps.

Donald is right...also I have a few clients that use hypnois to achieve self-esteem and confidence to make it easier for them to go on and be able to handle difficult things in their life.
