I really feel for you on this one. I would just try to be open and honest with your T and hope that she can work past the countertransference and be the best T she can be.
I've never had that sort of thing happen to me before. My T is pretty good about keeping countertransference out of our sessions. I recall one time where she reacted to something I said in a way that wasn't helpful to me. She kind of flipped out. That scared me and made me feel like I'd done something wrong. I did bring it up in the following session and she admitted to the countertransference and said she was sorry.
