Hi, sorry things aren't working out. Is your T experienced or is s/he newly graduated?
I can't remember the specifics, but I remember there was a bunch of stuff on the news about endless wait times and Congress changing the law to allow veterans to go outside the VA (and still have it paid for by the VA). Can you ask about that program?
Maybe then you could find someone who specializes in CPTSD rather than PTSD. I usually think diagnosis doesn't matter, but sometimes mental health (medical people too) will focus too much on 'evidence-based practices' but totally miss the boat.
