Why can't Ts just call the clients once per week to check in? It should be a new rule. In the code of ethics.

I think if you and your T discussed that and agreed on it, it could be a new "rule" associated with your therapy. You can always ask. I know, easier said than done.

There was one time in therapy when I had the strongest urge to disavow something, kind of similar to telling your T over the phone he doesn't need to call you. I had said something about us and I wanted so strongly to minimize it and make light of it. I fought and fought myself in session not to do that. And I was very proud that I didn't. But it took a lot of energy. I hope next time it will be easier. And for you too. Next time, on the phone, can you try not saying that he doesn't need to call you back, even if you really, really want to?
