I'm having similar feelings in this area (if I am understanding you correctly).
I guess on the one hand I can understand compliments or encouragement in the therapeutic sense. But my thought process then jumps to --- I dont want her saying things to me like that if she doesnt mean them because I wont take it in the right context if I think she's just complimenting me for the good of the process. But yet, personal feelings (where she really means the compliment) would also mean we are having perhaps a deeper "friendship" than we should be and I will be apt to attach or transfer in a big way. UGH, I really need to stop thinking so much.
I am new to the therapy process so I hope I am just worrying too much and these things will take care of themselves in time.
