Set boundaries. Enforce said boundaries. Its not easy, but its the only way to get her to lighten up. That means you tell her how you feel, you tell her what is and what is not acceptable, and you tell her the consequences for crossing those boundaries. When she crosses those boundaries, you enforce the consequences. (Most people fail the boundary thing in the enforcement part. Without the enforcement, everything else is useless.)
