Lose the "which" and maybe replace "on" with "upon". The "is" is optional. Purely as a matter of style, I would not put the clause "whatever she thinks right" in that location.

This is how it splits:
She imposes / whatever she thinks is right / on me.
thus your commas aren't in the right places.
The first seems OK to me.
She imposes / whatever she thinks is right / on me.
thus your commas aren't in the right places.
The first seems OK to me.

The two options that BW2/3 and Anonymous posted are equal (once grammar is fixed, so I am basically referring to comma or no comma and ordering), but they merely differ in what you want to emphasize.
