try on guitar pro, that way you can see the notes and rythms and count out the notes
example, 8 eigth notes would count as "1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and" (in regular 4/4 time)

i think its something that should come naturally. some recomendations i can give are:
start learning different rhythms in different songs. it'll help you familiarize yourself with some rhythms since a lot of songs share the same rhythm
only if you can, get Guitar Pro. with it you can download songs from webs like Ultimate-Guitar.com or 911tabs.com. with GP you can see exactly the rhythm of the song. also, you can slow down a song's bpm with it to examine certain parts you don't get more closely

count the number of beats between one point in the song and the time it is repeated

It will help, use the metronome

Good job. It feels great when you figure out how to play a song. I love that feeling.
