Women are wired differently than men are. Frustrating but true. But what you're dealing with is a confidence issue; she doesn't have enough self-confidence to trust that when you compliment her, there's not another shoe waiting to drop.
If you look at it this way, what you need to do is convince her not that she's pretty or smart or whatever enough (you can't, because she has to do that herself), but that you're happy to have her in your life and that she makes your life better. (If she does.) Those are things that you control, and they sound credible coming out of your mouth; she can't deny that if you say it's true. Or, better said, you're in good position to refute her if she does...
good luck
