Instead of saying "she is the kind of person that really gets other, she really understands them deeply", I want an adjective for that. It's not empathetic.

"Empath" is a noun which means something different entirely. "Empathic" or "empathetic" are adjectives however that do seem to fit your description very well. Also look at "sympathetic," "compassionate," "commiserative," or simply "understanding."

Even if you said that it’s not empathetic, I think that what you’re looking for might be:
Empathetic
Someone who has the ability to understand and share someone’s feelings and emotions.
Understanding
Someone who is aware of someone’s condition, is tolerant and doesn’t judge.
Sympathetic
Someone who is concerned about somebody and cares about them and what they feel.
Supportive
Someone who understands somebody, helps and encourages them.
