No I don't think so.
It is possible to both care and not mention it. Mentioning it in this sort of fashion does, to me, put the focus on the therapist and the client wanting to be seen as good or caring or special
or X -unless you really want to discuss why you have an urge to talk about the therapist- so you saying why and what it means and then parsing through that but without the therapist explaining anything about their life.
