Counter steering comes from gyroscopic progression, which is hard to explain with out holding a wheel by the axles and spinning it, then it makes total sense, although I am not 100% sure if it applies in all bicycle cornering applications as many of them are at lowish speeds where it will make no contribution..

That doesnt mean to say that pushing on the left bar to turn left doesnt apply, I just dunno if it is all down to counter steering, I think there is a lot to do with weight shifting too as the stability from the spinning wheel at lower speeds is a small contribution to the stabilising forces of the bike.
