Clark is helpful and responsive to my needs. Sometimes he just listens to me rant so I can get things sorted in my head. He also is flexible in his approach if that is what is needed.
More about Clark
- 22 years' experience

- LIMFT
My name is Clark Hammond, and I am a Marriage & Family Therapist (MFT) licensed in the state of Utah. I earned a master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy from Brigham Young University, and a non-clinical doctorate degree from Oregon State University (Human Development & Family Studies, with an emphasis on Family Enterprise).
I have been fortunate over my 20+ year career to work with hundreds of clients in a variety of settings. My MFT background helps me better understand the larger context when working with individuals. From private practice, residential treatment, young adult transition programs, to wilderness therapy, I have witnessed countless victories that come from rising above challenges and experiencing the growth and fulfillment we all hope for. I have also taught for nearly 8 years as a core faculty member in a graduate program training Clinicial Mental Health Counselors.
I continue in my private work, but I want to do more. In today’s world, technology provides meaningful opportunities to access a variety of services – more important now than ever before.
I am very client-centered in my approach, and see therapy as a truly collaborative process. In addition to the clinical approaches listed below, I glean from the fields of Positive Psychology and systems theory in this work. As “fellow travelers” along this journey of life, we all need support along the way. It’s an honor for me to share the road.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Clark is a kind and attentive therapist that heard me and offered some valuable suggestions. Thank you,
Clark is a great listener and Therapist. His ideas for moving forward and dealing with life challenges are really helpful and his attitude towards the tough situations is empathetic and kind. A great guy and certainly someone who you can trust. He is very professional and observes the obvious client-patient confidentiality. I wish he could take on one of my family members as he has a great way with people. A great asset to the Better Help team.
Clark is an incredible therapist, he has helped me with managing my big problems and helped me by giving me advice and the right tools to make those problems not so big. I highly recommend Clark as he is an incredible listener and has lots of helpful advice!
Clark is a great introductory to therapy. Being that this is my first time ever reaching out, I couldn’t imagine a better listener than clark.
He's amazing
Clark is an incredible therapist with an amazing way to meet you where you are and help you find your own way to where you want to be. I am beyond grateful for the time that I have had with him as a therapist.
Clark is an easy going and thoughtful man that helps me to discuss my thoughts and feelings. I really enjoy my sessions with him and would recommend him to anyone that is seeking someone to listen.
He's amazing!
Clark is helpful with giving me prompts and having a dialogue. It feels like I am able to lead the conversation and the direction of the session, but he redirects as necessary. His voice is calming and his words are validating.
Clark has been amazing. He has a very understanding and positive attitude without being scripted. I feel very much at ease talking to him and he seems invested in trying to find solutions for and with me. I love that he tries to find supporting material to send in between sessions or sometimes just checks in without feeling obligated to write back, nor does he give you the impression that he is keen to end the session. I feel confident that he will be able to help me develop more self-esteem and decide what I want to do next in my life.
Highly recommend Clark as a therapist. He has an individual approach and tunes the therapy to his client's needs. I've experienced an improvement in the issues which we were discussing already after a few sessions. Clark listens attentively to the client and shares his thoughts in a smooth manner, doesn't make you feel any pressure.
