I hope you are able to find a form of therapy that suits your circumstances better if that is what you would like to do.

Sorry, but this is not how psychoanalysis works. Other than the first "boundary", the rest of them are completely unreasonable. Expecting a client to pay for sessions while they are on vacation and cannot attend or else they can't return to therapy is extortion and completely unethical.
