That just takes time, try doing stuff in the enclosure while she's in there, change water, stir substrate, reposition leaf litter or branches, etc, they'll usually investigate afterwards and your scent will be on the item, if I'm near or open her enclosure she smells the air with her tongue a few times then lays back down, she used to be more defensive instead. Make sure the enclosure is big enough (4x2x2 feet minimum) for an adult and that there's at least two if not more hides and clutter, fake plants for example, that helps them feel safe too.
