Well, this is just me. But in similar circumstances, I've been honest. If I'm hearing you right, she's slightly missing the mark and it makes you feel a bit uncomfortable or pressured to answer as you think she wants you to.
I think I'd just explain that, and add whatever bringing the doll does do for therapy for you. Like, for me, I used the doll to help open access to my more vulnerable side. Which didn't mean the doll had anything to say in session. :)
Maybe you could get her to ask what the doll's mommy thinks instead.
