Clinical Lead
Dr. Abdullah Sallaj, MD (Board-Certified Psychiatrist, U of Chicago trained)
HealingMaps Take: Able Psychiatry offers a well-structured 9-week ketamine program under University of Chicago-trained psychiatrist Dr. Abdullah Sallaj. With 15+ years of experience and multiple administration routes (nasal spray, troche, and IM injection), patients have flexibility in how they receive treatment. At $350 per session, pricing is competitive for the Chicago market. Note that patients must complete a new patient intake before starting ketamine, and two mandatory follow-up appointments are required after treatment — a sign of thorough clinical care.
Market Position: Able Psychiatry treats both depression and PTSD — the two most common ketamine therapy indications, accounting for 34% of HealingMaps patient inquiries.

Patient Questions about Able Psychiatry
This question is matched to the conditions Able Psychiatry treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Does Able Psychiatry treat PTSD?
Yes — Able Psychiatry treats PTSD. Ketamine for trauma differs from depression treatment: dosing is often lower per session, and pairing the protocol with trauma-focused therapy between sessions is common. A reasonable consult question: whether PTSD patients here typically use ketamine alone or alongside an outside therapist.
