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?

Just found out that 2 years ago, my referral to the NHS autism service never happened.

My GP just dug the letter out of a crypt and showed it to me for the first time, it stating that I didn't seem autistic and not to refer me. Someone also decided to make sure no one ever sent me that letter.

It hurts to be actively road-blocked from the support I need and deserve, and now I have nothing to back up my claim for disabled students allowance when I start uni.
