About Me
I'm not your typical psychotherapist, and everyone I've had the honor to work with on their life's journey can attest to this. Born, raised and forged in the "Steel City" and sharpened in the "City of Brotherly Love", the term "Alchemist" more accurately describes who I am. I specialize in alchemizing pain into purpose and trauma into triumph. If you're ready to transform your life, I'm your guy!
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.

Something Beautiful Counseling was built around a simple belief: that healing is possible for everyone, and therapy should feel like a real partnership — not a clinical process you're being put through.
I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors on anxiety, depression, OCD, eating concerns, PTSD, grief, relationship challenges, and family stress. I also offer couples therapy through a Solution-Focused approach. Whether you're carrying something heavy or just need support navigating life's transitions, there's a place here for you.
Hello, I’m happy to meet you and begin working with you as a therapist who specializes in trauma. The following information includes my professional background, the therapeutic services I provide, and the rights and responsibilities that will guide our work together. Please feel free to ask me any questions that you have.
My Education and Experience: I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology, a master’s degree in Sociology with a clinical emphasis, a doctoral degree in Applied Sociology with a clinical specialization, and I’m a Certified Clinical Sociologist through the Association of Applied and Clinical Sociology. I completed a master’s degree in clinical social work (MSW) with a specialization in Trauma and Interpersonal Violence in 2022 and am a fully licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I earned my previous degrees in Kentucky from Western Kentucky University and the University of Louisville. I completed my MSW through Simmons University in Boston, Massachusetts. My past clinical work has focused on family preservation and child welfare through in-home crisis intervention, family reunification services, parenting education and independent living skills, supervised visitation for children residing in foster care, and custodial mediation and visitation for co-parenting separated or divorced couples. I’ve also worked for the states of Kentucky and Virginia as a child welfare analyst, consultant, and educator. Additional work has included forensic interviewing, case management support for child advocacy centers, and expert testimony in court cases involving child maltreatment and domestic violence as a Qualified Mental Health Professional in (QMHP) Virginia and Kentucky.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Fayetteville
Finding couples therapists in Fayetteville starts with understanding what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific couples training, so it helps to look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy in their profiles. If you’re comparing couples counseling in Fayetteville, NC, and Fayetteville marriage counseling options, those training details can help you narrow your search.
In a mid-sized city like Fayetteville, finding one therapist who fits both partners’ schedules, preferences, and location can take some planning. You may want an in-person office near your home, work, or commute, or a virtual appointment that gives both partners more schedule flexibility. As you review marriage counselors in Fayetteville, NC, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation. Reading therapist bios can also show how they structure sessions, how they describe their communication style, and whether they work with the concerns you want to address.
Couples therapy in Fayetteville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway helps you search for therapists who offer couples therapy and are accepting new clients, and nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans that you can check for your specific coverage. You can enter your insurance details, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare therapist profiles, 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.
