She looks like she might be toast, sorry about that. You can try to pinch the foliage and if it crumbles its been dead a while
To be 100% sure you can do the scratch test by taking a knife and lightly scraping bark off a small portion of the trunk, if its green then its still alive inside, but usually junipers will begin to die long before they show signs of distress

On the bright side, if you keep it, you never have to care for it again!

If you go to bend a branch and it snaps right off, it’s dead.

Dead. Junipers will not survive indoors.
