A good staff helps. I suffered with my priest until I found a good melee weapon.
My typical encounter at that level was to start with SW:P from maximum range, wand them as they closed, after they have got a swipe or two on me I cast Shield, then renew, then melee or wand until my damage is about 1/2 and I when can reshield, then I heal myself, reapply SW:P as needed and etc. etc. etc.
Once at 14 you can cast Psychic Scream, and using it against beasts you will not have add problems.
