It is understandably frustrating. I also don’t get that 2nd temp T who gave you homework and then said 'no, thanks'. Unbelievable. Some Ts really take the mick...

I agree that it might be worth opening up your criteria (i.e. other avenues) if none of the LGBT ones are available. I don’t know how it works where you are but is calling them up and asking for such details (i.e. probing re religious/gay-friendliness issues) not an option? Or email enquiries (to those who don’t specify lgbt etc.)

Or could the group facilitator not be able to help with referrals (i.e. lgbt friendly Ts or simply decent/open/non-judgmental names) seeing he knows your T?

I hope your T (or anyone monitoring her website) gets back to you at any rate... Good luck to you!
