How much more personal can you expect a coworker to get that says, "I really must tell you how much I enjoy meeting with you!"?
A great many people in therapy do not work hard, either because they cannot or will not. You may/may not be your T's favorite but you are definitely one she enjoys. Being enjoyed isn't enough for you?
My husband changed my life one evening when we were talking and I made a funny verbal mistake and we both laughed at it and I did the "I know. . . you aren't laughing at Me you're laughing with me" line only he interrupted me in the middle and very intensely

said, "I'm neither laughing at you or with you, I'm
enjoying you" and a lightbulb went on in my head. I'm an enjoyable person to be with. I can make people happy. Before I just thought I was a loser when I tripped over my words but now I deliberately tell people what I'm thinking and how I see the world because I'm unique and enjoyable to others.
