I don't use counselcounsel or ivyivy, but you can execute arbitrary elisp as part of a link. If I wanted to store search results from, say, M-x occur, I would use something like: [[elisp:(occur "phrase")][Search for phrase in this buffer]]

That approach has the downside of prompting you to "Execute ... as elisp (y or n)"Execute ... as elisp (y or n), which could be annoying. If you make this sort of link often, you might consider adding a custom link type with (org-add-link-type "occur" (lambda (key) (occur key))) And then you can type occur:blahoccur:blah, and it will be highlighted as a link without a prompt. You'll have to change it to work with ivy-occur of course.
