I'd have thought that something like this should work:

using System.Diagnostics;

// ....

string filePath = @"C:\myfiles\myfile.psd"; // or whatever it is
Process.Start(@"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop\photoshop.exe", filePath);

Also this might work if your system has been set up to automatically associate files with the .psd extension with Photoshop:

Process.Start(filePath);
