Any tips on how to access therapy with severe social anxiety?

I'm mute, so phone calls aren't an option for me, and I'd literally faint before managing to click a zoom link. I basically need therapy in order to go to therapy 😅

I've spoken to therapists about this and unfortunately they all say there's nothing they can do if I can't meet with them in the first place. What's the next step for me?

@Oatmilky I recommend talking with a good friend, once you feel comfortable chatting with them about a few personal things you'll appreciate the practice and hopefully feel more comfortable opening up to a therapist.
@AmarettoBear thanks for your advice! Unfortunately the problem is the fact that a therapist is a stranger, but you can't really change that without meeting them first :')
@Oatmilky I know this very well. *hugs*
