Tashaniyi Byrd

Tashaniyi Byrd

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Bethesda, MD


I’m Tashaniyi, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional. My path to psychiatry began in the ICU, where I trained at Johns Hopkins and the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center. Watching patients survive their worst moments made one thing clear: the body and mind are inseparable, and conventional care alone rarely tells the whole story.

That conviction shapes everything I do at Aurelia Integrative Psychiatric Care. I specialize in burnout, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, and I work with high-performing professionals who have tried the standard approaches and still feel like something is missing. My care integrates psychiatric treatment with labs, pharmacogenetic testing, and nervous system restoration because I believe you deserve more than a prescription and a follow-up in 90 days.

I start where most providers stop.

Find the right psychiatrist for you

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 Psychiatrist in Ellicott City

Finding psychiatrists in Ellicott City starts with understanding the type of care you want to search for. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you alongside a prescriber. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, read each psychiatrist’s listed specialties and background to see whether their training matches your needs.

Ellicott City is a smaller market, so local in-person psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger Maryland cities. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still letting you choose a psychiatrist licensed to see people in Maryland. Psychiatric medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare profiles, look at appointment availability, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and how each psychiatrist describes their approach.

Psychiatric care in Ellicott City can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and match your plan, with upfront cost estimates after you add your insurance details. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you are ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
