I have a wide variety of experiences that I can draw upon to help you. I really enjoy helping clients become the best version of themselves! I can work with any and all issues that you might be experiencing.
My name is Courtney Kadish-Smith and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have worked in both mental health and addiction throughout my career. I have a passion for therapy and at the end of the day I am aware this is not an easy thing to commit too. Exploring into ourselves and working to get better is something that takes courage. I applaud you for reaching out in the first place and now we can take the step together towards making your life better.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. I work with adolescents and adults ages 13-65 experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, insomnia, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and substance use challenges. My practice focuses on integrative psychiatry, combining traditional psychiatric treatment with lifestyle, nutrition, sleep optimization, and wellness strategies to support whole-person healing. I am especially passionate about helping individuals from diverse backgrounds, including BIPOC communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, college students, and young professionals.
If there is one common human emotion, it is a feeling that we are doing the best we can, with the options we see as available to us. We like to feel we always make our best decisions.
Throughout my career, I have had the honor of working with people at all levels of life. Many who are seeking change, and some who have been forced to talk with a therapist. All of whom are, on some level, scared of the change they are seeking.
Whatever brings you here, I offer warmth and compassion.
As a queer-identifying therapist, I specialize in trauma therapy, and have a history of working in community mental health. I have experience working with a wide age range, immigrant and refugee populations, and the LGBTQIA+ community. I utilize a combination of EMDR, Somatic Processing, Internal Family Systems and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in my approach.
If you’re feeling stuck in anxiety, depression, trauma, school stress, or family conflict, therapy can be a place to feel understood and start making meaningful change. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I support clients in building coping skills, improving confidence, and finding practical ways to manage everyday challenges.
I am a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of experience working in the field. I am passionate about what I do and feel very fortunate to have worked with a very diverse and inspiring group of individuals, families and community providers in my time in the field. I also love hiking, biking and spending as much time as I can with my family.
I came to therapy from teaching, and that background shapes how I show up: I'm used to adapting to who's in front of me, reading what's unsaid, and finding an approach that actually fits the person — not just the presenting concern.
I work with adolescents and adults on trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, maternal mental health, grief, and family stress. EMDR is a core part of my practice — particularly for clients whose past experiences still affect how they feel and function today, even when they'd rather they didn't.
I keep a small, intentional caseload. If you'd like to see if we're a good fit, I offer a free phone consultation before we commit to anything.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Hamburg
Searching for therapists in Hamburg starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a smaller community like Hamburg, the number of nearby in-person options may be more limited than in Buffalo or other parts of Erie County. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still allowing you to work with a therapist licensed in New York. When narrowing your options, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can also help you understand a therapist’s communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like mental health counseling, couples counseling, or marriage counseling.
Therapy in Hamburg can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer virtual or in-person appointments. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
