You have to wear her out, mentally and physically.
Mentally, by being in obed classes once/week, then practicing what you learned in class a couple of times/day, 5-10 minutes at a pop. You also might look into teaching her other activities, such as tracking, when the weather warms up.
Take her out for a power walk every morning before work and again when you get home. My dogs are free walked for half an hour every morning before I leave for work and again for about 45-60 minutes when I get home. We have 70+ acres and I'm out in the fields with a flashlight.
Your dog is "very hyper" because you're not providing her with enough channels to burn off her youthful puppy energy.
