Hello Sassy! Welcome. It's nice to see a another familiar face here.
As you know, I am also on that same regional board that you speak of. The place has become a train wreck.
But sometimes 'ya just have to let things go. I know it is hard to do. REALLY. I KNOW. It is hard to ignore something like that and just 'suck it up' but in the long run it is probably better not to draw things out with further communications on the matter and open up the window for further misunderstandings in doing so.
Just my .02

It's important to remember that IQ tests only measure what IQ test ask for. It is rare to find questions on the test that measure the ability to have succesful interactions with people. In the case at hand, it is a complicated one because it involves a disconnect that spans up to four interpersonal interactions. Rather than try to untangle it, I suggest that you slice through it like the proverbial Gordian knot, and basically start over again. First take the responsibility for whatever went wrong. Second, state your intention to be friendly. Finally, start a positive interaction that she can participate in. If her response to this is negative, then this is not a person you are meant to be in contact with.
Maybe I am taking thing the wrong way but I am a very intelligent person. Genius IQ of 145. Also a psyholgist in the works. I see insecurities in people in their mannerisms. I have to hold back many times as they would take things offensively. My issue at hand is I have been attacked by another provider that assumed she thinks I assumed she offended me. She has, to me, attacked me in a public forum and I reacted in the most undefensive way that I can. I am not sure what the problem is on her end but from my point of view I see insecurities. I will not tell her that but I really want to confront her about what I see. I am more about building people up and never tearing them down, but this one I am not sure how to handle. Honestly I really just want to give her a piece of my mind. I am being mature though and just letting it be.
