Those times when you can't ignore a negative behavior, redirection comes in handy. She just needs an alternate assignment or task.
I tell my rescues "go to bed" when they get in my face on the couch. I think the official command is more like "place." Doesn't matter as long as you're consistent.
My newly adopted dogs get crated during my mealtimes...
Next, they wear a leash around the house for a while. Go to bed means I have to get up and use the leash and place them there the first few times, but they get it soon enough.
Good luck!
