I've never heard of anyone having hand strength issues except for barre chords (I can still wear MYSELF out playing all barre chords on my acoustic for several songs).....so, start with open chords. thinner strings take less grip strength and encourage lighter playing....so, have it set up for light strings. And for goodness sake have it SET UP for her....lower action....on an acoustic where the strings WILL be thicker....
Beginners usually have issues with fingertip pain....and women with nails....has been my experience. Cut the nails....and "it will pass--promise".
