Since she is doing this mainly when you are away, try crating her in a large cage when you leave the house. A large crate gives her room to play and fill it with different types of toys to chew on and if it is a wire crate it will be very open and will hopefully prevent her from feeling too closed in. (I suggest checking with your vet on the safest toys) Keep the cage clear from any furniture or decor because she will chew things on the outside of the cage if she can get to it.
Mine won't stop chewing at all. She is 3 months old and gnawing on EVERYTHING!!! When I leave I do this and she chews the heck out of all of her toys when I'm gone instead. Now if I could only get the potty training under control. I feel for ya, hang in there.
