www.clearvisiondesign.co is our website. and in our services page there are certain services that have the tag rel=canonicalwww.clearvisondesign.co/portfolio/ or something. and we need them to link to our services not our portfolio. we are using wordpress as our cms

I do see that your homepage has a canonical to this page, which means you're telling Google to index http://www.clearvisiondesign.co/blog/ instead of http://www.clearvisiondesign.co/

so im telling google to index my blog and not my homepage? is fixing it as easy as going into my cms and just taking out the tag? im pretty new to some aspects of seo so im having a hard time understanding certain things. also. why would i have the canonical tag being used in my page at all? i didnt put it there.

"so im telling google to index my blog and not my homepage?"
Yes, although your blog shows the same content as the homepage for me.
