No - I just don't see those sorts of things as being proffered as compliments necessarily - maybe they are.
The therapists I hired did not see me at my best or my worst so indeed they would not know. From reading their textbooks and taking their classes, telling clients such things is a technique they use at clients.
My point has nothing to do with generally accepting compliments one way or the other.
