This is what I would also try to say. If she is really hateful towards you though maybe you need to disengage. I also have had a tendency to try to keep friends even when their words are very hurtful. I hope you can work this out with your friend. Welcome to pc

I would likely say something positive, mixed with the truth about how her behavior affects me.

Something like: We are good friends and you know I care a lot about you; however, lately I am very upset about your words. I'm wondering if we can talk about any misunderstanding?

Easier said than done, I know!

Again, welcome!
