I think the normal way of introducing reverb in a controlled fashion, particularly to a stereo track, is to 'send' the track to a particular reverb setting (which can be quite aggressive), allowing you to control the volume at which it is then introduced back to the main stereo output (in effect, mixing as much reverbed up signal as you choose into the original dry signal). This is opposed to just dropping the reverb plugin directly on the main track and trying to adjust the sound by tweaking the plugin controls.
You can 'send' the track through a couple or more of different reverbs if you wish to produce a custom complex output back into the main track. The DAWs I've investigated all have this capacity, and certainly Presonus Studio One does, because that's how I manipulate reverb(s) on stereo tracks. It allows you to dial in very subtle amounts of what would otherwise be outrageous settings.
My recollection is that Doug Young uses this technique in the explanatory videos I've watched.
I don't think you can do this in Audacity, though.

You can send using buses and so on but you can simply copy two tracks and apply different reverbs on the copies. A simple version that works well. I might do a simple screencast to show how this works later. My thought was you can use this technique in GarageBand or Audacity.
