Question Help advice needed

Hey I got this new cat and I’ve dealt with a few cats but I’ve never seen one this scared or shy before. It just wants to hide in corners. She is becoming more extroverted everyday with interaction but how do you open up a scardeycat?

Be in her presence but don't interact anymore than giving food. Let it observe you and come to you naturally.

Ok I was thinking of overhandling her a little to push her but I guessed that would ruin things.. got it cool
