I get what you're saying! Wow.

It sounds like what may have happened is she, maybe without meaning to, was really just focused on her own needs? She was talking about how much you make her enjoy being a therapist, rather than telling you how she thought you were doing.. how much progress you've made.. or telling you specific things about your growth.

Bottom line is that she was focused on herself (which explains the intensity), and probably didn't even realize it. She probably thought she was complimenting you.

I think your reaction to it says alot about your depth.
