About me
Hello there, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California. I graduated from UCLA with a masters in social work in 1995. I have twenty plus years of experience as a licensed mental health therapist and 10 years of direct practice working in a variety of settings. I have worked with adults, children and families from diverse backgrounds. I have successfully helped clients with a range of problems including depression, anxiety, family problems, trauma, abuse, and addictions. I like to help teach clients skills that will help them to have success for the rest of their lives. I am a supportive and caring therapist and really try to help clients develop a deeper spiritual connection, a more confident sense of themselves and their strengths. I integrate Rogerian concepts to help foster a good therapeutic relationship. I use solution focused therapy, mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapies. Couples often get bogged down in repetitive communication patterns that make both feel stuck and misunderstood. Through the therapeutic process I can help couples come to a deeper understanding of one another and thereby reduce conflict and have healthier happy relationships.
I look forward to working with both of you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Cary Clevenger. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Cary made such a huge difference in our marriage. Both my partner and I feel like we understand ourselves better. It feels like we’re a team now. We have him to thank for that. His guidance really helped us open our eyes and we discovered how to grow with each other as well as how to communicate better. The road is tough but totally worth it. I highly recommend him. If you get matched with Cary, you hit the lottery !
So far so good. Cary has an honest straightforward approach that we like and need from this experience. Already feeling positive effects from our sessions. We’d recommend for sure!
Cary has been truly instrumental in our relationship. In just a month's time, my loving partner and I have opened new doors, discussed our futures and really grew. I would recommend any one to Cary because, not only is he a great listener, he truly tunes into the couples and identifies what we need to work on. He even finds new ways for us to develop individually than we ever thought before. Also, he recommends really great activities for couples to do weekly that dives into some of the issues that you're going through. So happy to have had Cary in our lives!
