I she needs to use a computer,any library is available.
If she can't even get to a library, her problem is too big for you to help with, if she won't leave.
What about accessing some of these sites through a VPN?
correct me if i'm wrong but your hard drive keeps a record of all the sites that you visit. so if he wanted to he could go through the hard drive to see her activity. just because you delete things from your pc dosent mean there gone it just deletes the extensions and
The goal here is to find a way to get around the restrictions that abusers create to control their victims, to create a safe option for them to access people/information/resources that can actually help them leave.
There is plenty of solutions but none of them are viable if someone has physical access to the device especially if they are involved in IT. Even any putz can use Google to find how to analyze internal logging features/history common on most devices or install something to track them.

When something is deleted from the trash can it still exists on the drive however that space is now free for other data. Once it becomes overwritten recovery becomes impossible but there is some caveats to that. Firstly the file could be fragmented or when it's large only parts of it may be overwritten and partial recovery is possible. Secondly there is what they call slack space, your drive is divided into clusters and only one file can be written too a cluster. If only part of the cluster is written too the rest is called slack space and partial recovery of that data that has not been overwritten is possible.
That's why Windows gives you two sizes for files and folders under properties. Another of life's mysteries solved.
Nothing hypothetical about her. Prepaid plans do exist. I don't know that she can or can't get one without him knowing. I'm just wondering if it's an option. I know she has a cell phone on his plan. Not sure what kind but I'm guessing any device on his plan can be monitored by him.
I see some prepaid mobile hotspots for sale on Walmart's website.

And you'll end up with the same result as the Harvard kid that sent a bomb threat via Tor. These tools provide confidentiality from those that are intercepting the traffic from the outside. If you have access to the internal network, it'll be useless.
Her only recourse is to use public terminals, friend's computers etc. Something where the abuser has no unrestricted access to the activities. She may even consider getting new emails accounts for herself just to be sure.

So it sounds like a laptop and a mobile internet/hot spot he doesn't know about would be a good option. What would she need to do to ensure the hotspot is not detected by his devices? I'm thinking she would only use it when he's not home. As long as she shuts it down before he gets home it won't show on the network list, correct? Any other advice there?

Well, it could look he's picking up a neighbor's wifi hotspot, maybe? Perhaps she could name the hotspot "Smith Family" or whatnot. When he's home, she could switch to his hotspot.
Does she have a laptop? Can she bring it to Starbucks or a public library to use internet? It just worries me that if he discovers what she's doing (and if he's an IT guy, who knows what other things he could be doing to her computer), it could anger him and then go downhill from there.
people that dont like to be watched often are up to no good.
financial infidelity is a biggie.
you are of course calling snooping domestic abuse. we can put whatever spin on it that suits us, however the bottom line is we dont trust each other. the question is should we?
