Default Fears and back legs

Rogue doesn't like heights. Or certain surfaces. She doesn't like to use her back legs to get onto anything that freaks her out. She will "touch" it with front legs, but that is all. She can spin in a circle with rear legs and back up. She'll walk over the ladder bars. It's not helping. If I put her up on whatever object she's refusing to climb or jump up on to and praise and then release her for tug she almost always will attempt to go on it again on her own. I want to help her over come these issues. Do you have any exercises I can try for her confidence in heights and unstable/slippery surfaces?
