Hi Paul,
I would start by going back a step and just controlling the ball over. Go back to the most important skill lesson. It is all about tapping the ball back on the table. Then you can progress to adding a little more to your stroke till you are making the forehand counterhit.
Always look to keep things simple first. If it is not working go back a step by slowing it down.
