Try Misting near her, but not at or on her. Have a dripper that lets water drip down onto leaves near her, which she may find less stressful that the mist, and only mist away from her. Move SLOWLY when near the cage. Do not enter the cage unnecessarily. If you must put hands in, move SLOWLY. Try not to move towards her, expecially from above - which is threatening. Never try to grab her. Try Putting her food in a cup, especially if its a treat fatty food like worms, then hold the cup below her favourite perch, and see if she will begin to associate you with good things (food). Remember to move slowly. Be predictable. If done right, she will eventually realize you are not a major threat. But chances are she will never be "cuddly" - chameleons are not know as hands-on creatures.
