OK, assuming you can shoot handguns, what’s your recommendation?

Just STFU.

This is the correct answer IMO. If she has to use a handgun for self-defense it will be a high stress moment and trying to remember the drill that may need to be done with a semi-auto may be more of a hinderance than helpful.

While I agree with the concept of weekly shooting / training sessions realistically that is not a scenario that is going to happen with most folks.

S&W / Colt / Ruger or other similar snubby double action and if it has to be used teach her to just keep pulling the trigger until it just goes click.

So simple. So correct.

My wife carries a Taurus public defender in her purse when she's out and about and a Ruger .380 LCP on her person. Pretty much from one extreme to the other. She prefers the Ruger .380 to her Lady S&W and shoots it a lot better also.

Sorry, it's a 357 magnum. Why spend the extra money when you can get a 642 much cheaper?

This makes no sense. The semi is carried with a round in the chamber. Most don't have a safety. What's the magazine have to do with it?
