We have a somewhat timid dog.  When we first got her she'd cower down when we walked straight toward her and usually hide under the porch. We gave her some space and didn't force anything. When we'd mess with our other dogs we'd call to her and invite her to come hang, sometimes she would and other time she didn't want anything to do with it. Positive reinforcement, patience and a whole lot of treats seemed to help her learn to trust us and built her confidence.
