I don't know of any psych meds that can cause high blood pressure but then I don't know the s/e of all of them.
Did you get your blood pressure checked at your PCP's? I've heard that it can go up just because of the anxiety of seeing the doctor, however, after 2 times in a row they can start to get concerned.
I'd ask your pdoc about the side effects, maybe he/she can lower the dose of the culprit, if there is one?
ETA: my understanding is that the lower number is the most important, and 80 isn't too bad, and then I think they calculate an average of the two numbers. Best of luck, I hope it doesn't continue to be high!
