I hold an MS in Clinical Psychology and BS in Addiction Studies, from Bethany University. Prior to those degrees, I earned my BA in education, from Judson University. Most recently, and for nearly a decade, I have been providing care in an outpatient setting for Kaiser. My role has been multi-faceted, serving a culturally and gender diverse population, both individually and via groups for patients (primarily adults) in early recovery from addiction, as well as their family members who have been impacted by the disease. This setting has included many dually diagnosed people seeking support around codependency, harm reduction (regarding substance abuse), and abstinence-based recovery treatment, with a 12 Step focus.  During my earlier years professionally, I interned at Relational Resources, I supported couples, families, and individuals struggling with codependency, depression, anxiety, and various types of family and relational challenges. I have missed family therapy and couples work, as that was not integrated into the clinical picture in my years at Kaiser Addiction Medicine Recovery Services. I look forward to once again walking alongside people to meet them and guide them, whether it is to focus on a relationship, complex family dynamics or specific individual diagnoses. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in higher education, living amongst and leading college students as resident director. It provided me opportunities to assist young adults in communication, identity formation, and negotiating both family and friend relationships. It was also a unique opportunity to practice my skills in crisis management. On a personal level, I am a mother of an elementary-aged only child and have been married for nearly 25 years. We struggled with years of infertility, so this is an issue I understand intimately, and am willing to guide others who have this as part of their story. Additionally, I grew up with the family disease of alcoholism, and lost my father when I was young. This has much to do with my journey in Al-anon for many years, and I do believe 12 Step recovery is an important tool for anyone impacted by addictions. More recently, I have participated and been blessed by the ministry of Griefshare, after losing my mother to cancer. Grief is a part of my story as well, and an area I am willing to provide support for my clients.  My family has lived in Santa Cruz County for 20 years, and we absolutely love this area. I love hiking, trail running and being outdoors with my dog, friends, family or alone as much as possible!  I look forward to talking with you about how I might be able to guide you on your journey of healing. Please email me at contactme@reagangloverlmft.com or call me at (831) 460-2550 x 4. I will have office hours in Aptos, Scotts Valley, as well as via telehealth.</image:caption>
