The offer is a little higher than the average I found online for the position, so she's probably telling the truth.

In terms of negotiating, I would try to have both offers open at the same time. This way, you will be able to choose between the two. There are a number of advantages to doing so. If you have one job that you prefer but aspects of the other that you really like such as: salary, time off, responsibilities, etc. You can say something like, "I am leaning towards accepting this offer, but I am still considering this other one because of <whatever your reason>. Is there anything you can do to address this?" If you put it politely and honestly, it should not work against you and they might do something to address your issue.
