Maybe water it more often? You should try it. Do you water it from above?
Yes
Are you allowing it to drain? I only soak mine for about a min, then allow to drain completely.
Unless you are supplementing with grow lights, your orchid is too far away from the East window. Phals do great directly in East windows, or at the most, only a couple feet away. Improving its light will help it bounce back more quickly, and dry out faster (phals like to dry out a bit between waterings.) Water when the roots in the substrate have turned silvery - don’t water when they are still green, and always avoid watering in the leaf crown. Improving its light will help substantially! Good luck.
