the section that says “online gender therapy (can write letters)” should probably be nullified. i looked up the therapist online and his reviews are not very favourable. there’s one where he went onto someone’s post to argue with them on their displeasure of working with him, for example. i’ve seen some good reviews but it’s such a toss up that i’d be very wary and not recommend him.

this resource may be of more use in finding online gender therapists who can write letters for HRT and SRS, but i’m not sure. try to look up reviews and ask them about their payment options, most should be able to accept paypal or credit card payments through a secure system. if not, do not use them, bank transfers are notorious for scams.
