I know others will disagree, but that is my opinion. I have been in this exact situation before, and this is how I handled it, and it worked out quite well. Never had an incident again, and the coach has never done it again either (to anyone).

I generally agree. Regardless of the situation, "yelling" or "barking" at a coach rarely is going to make the situation better. I think a T is in order, to let her know it's serious, but it should continue to be handled in a professional way, and somehow bringing the level of emotion down would be preferable.
