I'm definitely not an expert but I know that getting up to comfort her will only make it worse. Just like when you have a puppy. She will quickly begin to expect you to get up. The only thing I know is you have to immediately use some type of correction technique. We've trained ours to stop when we yell no barking or use a noise like EHH! Unfortunately this will not work for the squirrels she sees out the windows. But maybe if we were more consistent during these moments it would.
GOOD LUCK!
