Dr. Stockdale synthesizes relevant research into clinical practice through the design of evidence-based biobehavioral programming. As a result of this rigor, her work is nationally recognized and endorsed by leading specialists in multiple disciplines. For two-decades her programs have been implemented in major cancer centers and other healthcare organizations. In addition to her private practice, Stockdale is a consultant for corporate and health care organizations and developed a health psychology program for primary care settings specializing in preventive medicine, autoimmunity and stress-related conditions.

Dr. Stockdale also served as the clinical assistant for the hospital-based psychoneuroimmunology program Getting Well.
