Flooring – What to use for this floor transition

flooring

Recently bought a house with some questionable finishes. Just wondering what I would use here to transition between the tile and laminate flooring?

I am guessing I cannot use a T-moulding, as the notch will not fit. Thus, do the make something that is used for these particular situations? From the videos I have seen online, the gap is normally much larger than shown in my picture.

I was thinking of something like an oak carpet strip, as I can stain it. But it has screw holes, and I would prefer to glue something down? Again, I have zero experience here.

If you want to use T-moulding, you can cut the laminate back to make room. Probably the best tool would be an oscillating mulitool. You can get these with different types of blades, but the key thing is they can do fairly accurate plunge cuts to a controlled depth, and they can cut right in a corner/against a wall with almost no clearance.
