Unfortunately it is probably an internal problem with the reverse synchro and/or gear. It is probably damaged or the bushings have allowed it to move out of its position keeping it from engaging. Make sure to take it to a transmission shop and not a regular repair shop as transmissions require special tools and skills to fix.
