but how does one bring this with them into the room? I mean I didn't have a big sign on me saying please ignore my feelings and pump your way into my head. So how does it work?

Sometimes he "listens" very carefully to me and to himself, especially in our silences, for what being there with me is arousing in him. This is the countertransference. No, you don't have a sign, but your T is a good "listener" that she has "heard" what you are unconsciously saying.
