One other thing -- be aware that based on the past, she may continue to interpret and hear things you say as being condescending, controlling or corrective -- even when you are being vigilant of those behaviors. Don't try to dissuade her of those beliefs either or defend yourself or "show her" that you weren't condescending or argue that you didn't intend to condescend to her.
Just accept that she felt condescended to. Cause it's how she feels and that matters (at least) as much as your intention.
