I read this and imagined Dwight Schrute writing it. I hope I'm right.

This is 100% the right answer.
Any self-defense situation requires instinct and reaction based on repetition after repetition after repetition which you get from months/years of training, not a one time course.
These courses are taught with 100% compliant attackers which isn't the case in reality.

American Judo Hapkido in Clairton. They do a bunch of women’s self defense classes. My kid does martial arts there.

Depending on where she lives her local rec center may offer a course.

What is her age and general health status?
Maybe check into a JCC and ask about their krav maga or other classes: https://jccpgh.org/jccpghvirtual-live-schedules/

One off self defense courses are largely bullshit; you don't get enough reps in to build muscle memory, which leads to zero application in real life situations (and many things taught are out of fantasy land too).
Now a real fighting gym with frequent classes? That's what you want. There's a self defense course taught weekly at Stout Training that is legit and attended by folks of all ages/genders.
