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.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

You should know that I take your concerns seriously, and I will meet you with compassion, respect, and zero judgment. I understand that reaching out for mental health support can feel intimidating, especially if you have faced stigma, felt dismissed in the past, or worried about what a diagnosis might mean. My goal is to help you feel safe and at ease from the very first conversation.

As a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over eight years of experience in psychiatric and mental health care, I work with individuals across the lifespan. I commonly support people navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, stress-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other emotional or behavioral health challenges. I approach each person as a whole, not a label, and I take the time to understand your symptoms in the context of your life, your stressors, your strengths, and your goals.

In our work together, you can expect a collaborative, patient-centered approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard and involved, so we will discuss what you are experiencing, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what you want to be different moving forward. If medication is part of your care, I prioritize thoughtful, evidence-based decisions, clear education about options, and ongoing adjustments based on your response and preferences. I also value practical strategies and supportive guidance that you can apply between sessions.

Most importantly, I am passionate about each person I serve because I know you are important, and I recognize the courage it takes to seek help. My role is to offer steady, professional support and a trusting relationship as you work toward clarity, stability, and lasting wellness.

Abimelec Torres Serrano

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


I’m a bilingual psychotherapist (English/Español) with extensive experience supporting individuals living with bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University and am credentialed as a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Maryland and in Florida. In addition to my private practice, I work full-time as a Psychiatric Therapist at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, where I’ve spent years helping people manage mood disorders and find greater stability.

Living with bipolar disorder can feel like riding an unpredictable roller-coaster. Many of the clients I work with want to better understand their symptoms, spot early warning signs, and create daily routines that steady the mind and body. Others are navigating depression, anxiety, or the toll that mood changes can take on careers, caregiving roles, and relationships. If you’re ready to turn insight into action, sleep better, fuel your body, and nurture healthier connections, I’m here to guide you.

As we hit the halfway mark of the year this July, it is time to stop putting your mental health on the back burner. This holiday is the perfect moment to take action. Don’t wait for the new week to start: take control of your mental health and reclaim your peace of mind before the weekend ends by booking an intake appointment for this upcoming week. Whether you are facing a high-conflict divorce, a personal transition, or the crushing weight of burnout, it is exhausting to hold the line at work when your personal life feels like a crisis zone. You are used to managing the storm, but you don't have to manage this alone.
