Welcome to
A Better Balance Psychiatry
A Better Balance Psychiatry uses a client centered approach to mental health treatment. You will not be rushed in and out of your appointments and left with the feeling that you were not heard. All of your questions and concerns will be addressed at each appointment, and ultimately you make the final decision on any treatment plan. You and your provider work as a team to find the best treatment strategies for you.
Kat Flaherty PA-C
Born in Boston, Kat’s adventurous spirit has prompted a number of moves around the country, but she has happily called North Carolina home since 2005. She earned a business degree from University of Florida, and was then an entrepreneur in upstate New York for 11 years. She later returned to school to study the biomedical sciences, earning an Outstanding Achievement Award in Anatomy & Physiology. She received her PA education at Methodist University in Fayetteville, NC. She makes a point of attending psychiatric conferences whenever possible to stay current on the latest research regarding medications and other therapies to help people live life to the fullest. Kat is a strong believer in maintaining wellness through holistic means, supplemented with medication when deemed appropriate. She is a strong proponent of work/life balance, meditation, yoga, a healthy diet, exercise befitting each individual’s abilities, and spending time in Nature. She loves gardening, architecture, photography, Burmese cats, and hiking the English countryside.
