As far as I'm aware there are no courses that match what you are looking for.
Check out this article from the blog. Which explains why designing websites in Photoshop then converting to html/css may not be such a good idea any more.
I would recommend working your way through the Web Design track which will give you the skills you need to create a website from scratch. Then you can use the Photoshop file (or other mockup) as a reference and build the site with html/css etc.
Hope this helps :)

942 PointsThank you James i will give both the article and the track a look at but photoshop has much more options/style to web design than just creating it from html,css in my opinion

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 49,960 PointsI agree with you, however the problems arise when you start coding. Photoshop gives you too much freedom in my opinion. For example: making a layout in Photoshop is easy, you just click and drag. Making the same layout with CSS is way more difficult.
I used to design sites in Photoshop first then build with html/css. It took a long time to do and would never look as good on the web as it did in Photoshop. I found that creating a mockup on paper or with a tool like balsamiq and then starting to code asap really speeds up the process.
Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps anyway :)
