Searching for Preceptors in the Salt Lake Valley

I am a PMHNP student searching very hard to find preceptors for clinical hours in the Salt Lake Valley. I am supposed to start my clinical rotations in May 2023 but am not having any luck finding willing practitioners to precept under. I work for the University of Utah, but they give preference to U of U, BYU, and Westminster students at HMHI stating that they will not accept other students. I have reached out to the VA Hospital and was told they cannot accept new students. I am so disheartened by this, but all I want is to be a Psych practitioner. I have been an RN for over 25 years, and am finally following my dream of becoming a PMHNP. I have 4 clinical rotations (7 weeks each) where I need 125 hours each. I can do 125 hours with a non-prescriber (MSW, LCSW, CMHC, PsyD..) and can do a total of 37 hours via telehealth. Any suggestions, referrals, or guidance would be incredibly appreciated. My phone number is (801)916-1576, and my email is carlamtang@hotmail.com. 
Thank you in advance community!
