I wrote you back in the other thread, with the assumption you were seeing a "gender therapist". This is not the same as someone who works with lesbian, gay, bi clients, but I am sure you know that. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with gender. LGB is certainly better than nothing, though!

So, did you call any of the therapists on those lists who are closest to you and ask for a recommendation? I assume you asked the therapist you talked with if she knew someone. Sometimes the insurance companies don't have their in network provider list up to date on your insurance web site and you should call.

You know, WPATH standards no longer require a therapist letter for T. Some docs will give it through "informed consent", only. Did you look into that? Meaning, did you call the place where you plan to get your T and ask if they need a therapist letter in order to start T?
