It may be (?) that your difficulty is related more to "multi-tasking"
than to the basic concept of "counting". That is, too many things may
be going on at once.
Have you tried to focus on the counting problem alone --- by just
clapping the rhythm with your hands or by tapping a finger? No need to
have the clarinet in your hands.
Or perhaps play a long tone --- constant pitch, no fingering, no need to
use part of your mind for judging intonation --- and then tongue the
rhythm at constant pitch?
Are you using a metronome, such that you _hear_ (rather than imagine)
where the note divisions should be?
