Several ways. First you should be examined by a Chiropractor or and orthopedist. Typically Chiropractic adjustment plus exercises will help the problem.
Most chiropractors are trained and skilled in extremity adjusting so a subluxated knee cap called the patella can be manipulated back to a normal position. Frequently it’s an easy fix for an experienced chiropractor.

This should be examined by a medical professional such as a Chiropractor or Osteopathic Physician.
Best form of practice is to correct your muscle balance to make sure one muscle is not over-powering the other ones. You will be surprised out often this is the case in many people.
Usually a shifted kneecap is due to muscular imbalances in and around the knee, hips or feet, unless there has been specific trauma to the knee. You need to identify and balance the imbalances. Most chiropractors should be able to help you with this.
