Getting a phal to grow deeper roots

I have a no ID phal and it is currently potted in a bark mixture. I has very shallow roots and isn't as stable as it should be in the pot. Is this normal? How do I get it to grow roots that are deep and not shallow? Would a different pot help, like a taller narrower pot?
