It's not a matter of preference. 'takes ... with her' is correct. 'takes ... with herself' is wrong.
Verbs of carrying (bringing, taking, etc.) do not take the reflexive pronouns after "with", even though they might be expected to because of other rules regarding reflexives.
I always carry a pen with me
