About Shanti Recovery & Wellness
Shanti Recovery & Wellness has been providing mental health and addiction treatment in Portland, OR since 2014. The practice was built around a straightforward idea: people deserve psychiatric care that accounts for their whole situation. Our team works closely with each person to address both mental health and substance use. The two are more connected than they’re often treated. We offer both in-person and telehealth options, so access to consistent care doesn’t depend on circumstance.
As a dual-diagnosis treatment center, we specialize in treating co-occurring disorders. Psychiatric oversight is central to how we approach substance use, and that means the mental health piece gets real clinical attention alongside everything else. Every plan gets created from scratch, starting with a real conversation. No assumptions, no predetermined answers.
Every provider on our team is Oregon-based and brings years of direct experience serving this community. People come to us from all kinds of starting points, and we approach each one without assumptions or judgment.

The providers are excellent and the admins are always up to the task of doing what it takes to get the patients needs' met. I recommend Shanti's to anyone in need of treatment.Posted on PiggySkinnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't believe I've been with Shanti for 10 years now. Before I met Dr. Bahl, I went to many rehabs, and I just couldn't seem to do it. I give a lot of credit to him for the help in my success against addiction. I'm currently seeing Dr. Heims and she I incredibly helpful in keeping my mental health strong too. I could never thank those at Shanti enough.Posted on LizTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had such a wonderful experience working with Megan V. for over a year now. I'm a medical professional myself and as I tackled career and life changes and challenges - she helped make things so much easier! Not just with medication education and advice but with real life tips too on time management, positive habit development and enhancing self-care. And you can tell she really cares, she wants you to win. She follows-up and asks about how things are going, she listens and really concentrates on your overall wellness. Even as someone who does a LOT of personal development work on my own, she helped me restructure some of my daily routines to make my life so much more successful and I'm so grateful!Posted on ExcaliburTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Been working with Ms. Vandell she is indisputably the goat. Elite with the sauce. #realPosted on KR EmeryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so thankful for my interactions with both Megan Vandell professionally, and with Krystle in the front office! Two angels in the same practice!! 😊
What We Treat
At Shanti Recovery & Wellness, we treat the full spectrum of mental health and substance use conditions. Most people navigating addiction are also dealing with something deeper underneath. Our psychiatric-led approach means every person gets a thorough evaluation before any recommendations are made. Whether you’re seeking help for a mental health condition, substance use, or both, care here is tailored around your specific situation.
Mental Health
Our mental health services are grounded in psychiatric care, combining accurate diagnosis with personalized treatment planning. For those who haven't found relief through traditional approaches, we offer expanded therapeutic options, including TMS therapy for treatment-resistant depression and other mood disorders.
Drug Addiction
Our drug rehab in Portland takes a psychiatric-led approach to substance use disorder, addressing both the addiction and any co-occurring mental health conditions driving it. Every plan is built around the person's full history rather than a one-size-fits-all program.
Alcohol Addiction
Alcohol use disorder affects more than just physical health, and lasting recovery requires attention to the emotional and psychological factors behind the use. Our team provides comprehensive evaluation and coordinated care to support stable, long-term recovery.
Dual Diagnosis
As a dual diagnosis treatment center, Shanti specializes in treating co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders together. Addressing both conditions simultaneously produces more durable outcomes than treating each one separately.
Our Approach to Addiction Treatment in Portland
Most people who come to us aren’t dealing with just one thing. Addiction and mental health conditions tend to show up together. Leaving one unaddressed while treating the other rarely produces lasting results. Dual diagnosis care is incorporated into every care plan. Co-occurring conditions get real clinical attention from the start rather than being flagged for later.
Trauma, depression, and anxiety are among the most common conditions we see alongside substance use disorder. Each one affects the recovery process in real ways. Unaddressed trauma can make staying stable on medication harder. Untreated depression can undermine motivation in ways that look like resistance. Our psychiatric team understands how these conditions interact, and treatment plans reflect that understanding rather than treating each concern in isolation.
Insurance May Cover Treatment
We accept most major insurance providers to help you get the support you need. Call us to verify your coverage and discuss your options.












Our Services
We combine cutting-edge treatments with compassionate care to support long-term recovery and mental wellness.
MAT
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is one of the most effective strategies available to support recovery from opioid and alcohol use disorders. Yet, at Shanti, MAT is never one-size-fits-all. It’s a collaborative, thoughtful process, integrated with psychiatric evaluation, therapy, and long-term care planning. We offer both in-person and telehealth options, so support is accessible, flexible, and always grounded in clinical oversight.
Adolescent Psychiatry
Early intervention can make a lasting difference in a young person’s life. Our adolescent psychiatry services are designed for children and teens who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or early signs of substance use. Through careful evaluation and family collaboration, we support emotional development and create space for healing.
Adult Psychiatry
Life can feel overwhelming when mental health symptoms take hold. As part of our comprehensive addiction treatment services in Portland, our adult psychiatry program offers tailored care for conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD, and dual diagnosis concerns. We focus on accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment strategies that empower individuals to regain stability and clarity.
Suboxone Treatment
Opioid use disorder is complex, but recovery is possible. Our Suboxone treatment helps ease withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, making space for individuals to focus on deeper healing. Whether you’re beginning treatment or continuing your recovery, we offer compassionate, confidential care.
TMS Therapy (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation)
For individuals facing treatment-resistant depression or other mood disorders, TMS therapy offers a non-invasive alternative. By stimulating targeted areas of the brain, TMS can reduce symptoms without the side effects often associated with medications. At Shanti, this service is provided in a calm, supportive environment.

About Dr. Bahl
“I strive to change society’s outlook on addicts. Addiction is a chronic neurobiological illness and should be treated as one by medical professionals and the public. The socioeconomic tolls of the disease on public health are astronomical. With education and quality treatment, addiction medicine will gain further recognition as a major medical specialty. At Shanti Recovery & Wellness in Portland, OR, we are dedicated to providing top-tier addiction treatment and mental health services to our community.”
— Robbie Bahl, MD
