Emotionally traumatized after attack

My 10 y.o Pomeranian was attacked a few days ago by a German Shepard. I just got her from a shelter 2 months ago.
She is physically okay; a little sore, but mentally she is a wreck and traumatized.
She is hiding, and is afraid of everyone now.
I have been gentle with her, massages, gentle coaxing out of hiding, special meals. Her appetite is the same, and she will go outside, but not with the same zest she had before the attack.
She's traumatized and lost her mojo. I hope she recovers.
What can I do to help her recover?
