Hi Mair, I know exactly what you mean. I also tend to feel closest to my therapist when I am really upset, i.e. when I really need her. But I have learned/experienced also feeling very close to her when I am not upset or needy.
So I am sure that you can also feel close to her without being distraught. It might just take time. And I think it has to do with trust. Once I was more able to internalize my therapist and trust her, to know she's there and loves me and cares about me even when we're not together, then I could feel really close to her even when not in need.
My guess is it will happen for you too eventually.
