Terri Clarke

Marriage & Family Therapist, MS

San Luis Obispo, CA US
With over two decades of experience as a Marriage and Family Therapist, Terri Clarke is a skilled advocate for those navigating the complexities of relationships. Many individuals facing divorce often express regret for not seeking help sooner. Terri understands that every marriage encounters power struggles; these moments are pivotal for growth. She believes that overcoming this painful stage can lead to profound healing and character development. In times of conflict—whether arising from affairs, dishonesty, or everyday stress—emotional attunement can easily be lost, but Terri emphasizes that the journey of staying in love involves vulnerability and essential elements that foster connection.

Terri provides nonjudgmental, compassionate interventions, ensuring no one feels side-lined. Her therapeutic approach is rooted in the evidence-based methodologies of Dr. John Gottman, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Imago Therapy, all aimed at transforming negativity and defensiveness into empathy and emotional intimacy. Acknowledging that each partner brings distinct neurobiological backgrounds, temperamental traits, and family histories, Terri guides couples in honoring these differences. With her support, couples can cultivate the ability to soothe themselves, recover from conflict, and create a relationship filled with emotional safety, joy, and deeper erotic love.
