You think so? I personally definitely don't think I am good at it, quite the opposite. Why I usually refrain from guessing and prefer to ask people if it is relevant - then sometimes get the feedback that these things should not be spoken about and I should see, read between the lines, etc. But I cannot do those things accurately at all, especially with a quazi stranger. Interesting in the context of therapy, because both of my Ts sometimes brought up whether I thought about why they did or did not do this or that - I usually answered either no or that I thought about it in passing but how would I know, I prefer not to get into unfounded predictions.

I also don't think the client need to get in touch with the Ts feelings. What I read in the article is that sometimes it can be useful to discuss the interactions with the T, but I think the idea is to do that from the perspective and feelings of the client. And it is not the job of the client to help the T at all - we pay them usually high enough money to do their job. It's more to try to implement in everyday life the lessons learned in therapy. I think many therapies become useless and frustrating because the focus gets turned too much on what goes on in therapy and the client's original goals get lost or dismissed. I do think some Ts are guilty of this, I had one like that myself, where they want to dissect too much the therapy itself. But it is also the nature of some modalities, so if someone wants to focus on goals more and remain practical, it may be a good idea not to choose Ts working in those modalities.
