Try placing your hand in the enclosere and let her come to you and check you out. When she climes on your hand don't remove her from the enclosure or restrain her. Let her walk on and off your hand as she pleases. After doing this for a few days to weeks (depending on how fast she comes around) then she may be comfortable enough to let you pick her up. It just takes time. Also if she starts to get frantic or stressted out leave her alone and try again the next day. Im sure she will come around.

when i get knew leos i put a little calcium on my finger and let them lick it off and it really builds trust fast. And another thing, if your gecko is jumpy around loud noises, try playin a radio where you keep him as like background music and it makes them not afraid of loud noises cause if they sit in the room all day while your at work/school and its silent and then you come home makin noise they get really scared.
