Go up to the plate with a plan.

Do front toss with simulated at bats. Vary speed and location. Work through the mindset of 0, 1, and 2 strikes. The swing is the same, but smaller swing "windows" on 0 or 1 strike...go after "your" pitch**. With two strikes, go after whatever is coming if it's in the umpire's strike zone. Give feedback on pitch selection, and occasionally make her go deep into counts. Call hard contact a hit, and anything else an out. Pitch a simulated inning where the goal is a certain number of hits before three outs. You can also set up a game situation...last inning, down by one, runner on 1st, one out, and the next hitter sucks ;)

** If a pitcher is trying to walk/hit you, then let her.

Have some practice hitting where you don't say anything. Let her figure it out. Clear her mind and hit. Focus on one thought at the plate, for me its "line drives" or "see it at the hip" or "ready at release" or "be aggressive"
