When alone, direct combat with Flind is avoidable if you are able to pass two Wisdom checks to get her to kill herself. If that option is unavailable, Flind is incredibly dangerous up close; in her frenzied state she can easily kill multiple party members in a single turn.  A decent strategy to fight her is to restrict her movement with spells like [[Grease]], [[Web]] and [[Entangle]] then pelt her at range.
