About Clark

Clark Hammond is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 22 years of clinical experience. He earned a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Brigham Young University and holds a non-clinical doctorate in Human Development and Family Studies from Oregon State University. He practices from a client-centered stance and focuses on helping people improve self-esteem, manage stress and anxiety, and navigate relationship and parenting concerns.

He has worked across many settings, including independent practice, residential treatment, young adult transition programs, and wilderness therapy. That range has given him experience helping people through career shifts, divorce and separation, blended family issues, and transitions into adulthood. He also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, ADHD, and intimacy-related struggles.

In sessions he works collaboratively with clients to identify practical next steps. He uses clear strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and to set achievable goals. Mindfulness techniques are woven in when they help reduce stress and increase present-moment awareness.

Clark draws on systems thinking and ideas from Positive Psychology to see challenges in context. He aims to help people recognize patterns that affect relationships and self-worth, then test small changes that build confidence. His approach emphasizes real-world skills and steady progress over time.

He offers services from Utah and accepts international clients. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting people where they are. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns, and helps name goals that matter in daily life. This approach is useful for boosting self-esteem and working through relationship issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Sessions include identifying negative thoughts, trying small behavioral experiments, and tracking results. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That means adjusting pace, testing strategies, and combining approaches like mindfulness or solution-focused steps when helpful.

The practical benefit of online therapy is fitting sessions into everyday life. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments around work, school, or caregiving. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. In conversation, the therapist will outline which session formats are available and help pick what best fits the client's routines and goals.
