When she actually uses her powers beyond the trivial, it’s usually an episode where she gets mind raped. The writers are to blame here.
This might be my biggest TNG complaint. The character and the actor are good (or at least decent if we’re being picky), but almost every time the focus is on her, the writing is absolutely awful.
I feel like she would have been better if she was a diplomat instead of a councilor. There are tons of episodes where having a diplomat on the bridge would have been very useful, even if she was just an attaché advising Picard.
It would also give the show an excuse to keep her out of a uniform since she would likely be a civilian.
Which is primarily what the third seat is for. Often enough, Starfleet is entangled in a situation which calls for a foreign dignitary, mediator, or third party of some sort. The Enterprise simply “lucked out” on an empathic half-Betazoid. They really should be more thankful.

I can sense someone else’s feelings over a zoom call, makes sense to me!

I can do that too.
As a therapist its not unusual to start picking up a client’s feelings a few hours before the session when you’re closely attuned to them.
They nailed the criticism with that bit.
She always came across as a bit of a con man that got in over her head and can’t get out.
I sense…
Is she related to Mr Fantastic?
*Enterprise shakes violently
*Booming disembodied voice yells “who dares enter my domain!”
“Captain, I sense… a presence.”
“I sense… aggravation. Oh wait, that’s just you, Captain.”
Captain, uh where did you get that “cigar”? Also, it’s not mine.

I would love to know the range of her powers. Imo she was the worst of the main character in tng.
