I would suggest getting a teacher if you don't have one. There are lot's of things that could be causing a problem.
1. Insufficient or incorrect air support
2. Underdeveloped or incorrect embouchure
3. Incorrect configuration of oral cavity caused by tongue position and throat opening.
4. Mouthpiece not a good match to the clarinet.
5. Reed not a good match to the mouthpiece.
6. If you got a used clarinet, sometimes barrels get lost and then some one replaces it with one that is not a good match.
It could be any one or any combination of these items and perhaps others that I haven't even thought of. That is why it is important to get help from someone like a teacher in person.
