His caring for you because you are his patient, does not make it any less real or less valid. If a neighbor that you liked (/or was likable) needed your help, you would want to help that person and probably follow up to make sure they were okay - right? Why? Because you cared. It doesn't matter that one could say you only cared because that person was your neighbor or becuase you care about that person because you care about all people/humans. It does not make your actions any less real. Or your caring less valid. It is any easy pit to fall into - and one very familiar to anyone who struggles with depression. Don't believe everything you think.
Sooooo, chin up miss honeychurch. You are a likeable person, and your t likes you for the individual you are. No other client/patient is just like you, and your T sounds wise enough to know it. When he says he's happy to see you, he means he's happy to see YOU!
