Yeah...that's a lot of detail, but at least it's clearer now.

Detail is good. Clarity is good. Everyone has their own 'boundaries' (though most of us don't go around informing one another of them) but shifting boundaries are terrible for therapy. I'm glad you have an answer.
Honestly, I think it is better for a therapist to have limited availability. It's not what people want, but I think it better allows them to give people what they need.
