In January 2014, Stengel skipped the 2014 NWSL College Draft and instead joined the Los Angeles Blues of the since-disbanded USL W-League.[3] In June 2014, Stengel joined Frauen-Bundesliga side Bayern Munich.[4] She helped Bayern win the 2014–15 Frauen Bundesliga title, leading the team with nine goals.[5]

Washington Spirit

In December 2015, Stengel signed with the Washington Spirit.[3] In her first season with the team, she played in 19 regular season matches, starting 10, totaling 928 minutes. Stengel contributed four goals during the season, tied for second most on the team.[6] In 2016 Washington advanced to the NWSL Championship Game. The game was tied 2-2 after extra time and went to penalties. Stengal converted her penalty, but Washington lost to the Western New York Flash 3–2 on penalties.[7]

Stengel appeared in five games for the Spirit in 2017 before she was released by the club on June 28, 2017.[8]

Western Sydney Wanderers (loan)

Stengel was signed by Australian team Western Sydney Wanderers ahead of the 2016–17 W-League season. She was the leading goal-scorer for the Wanderers with six goals for the season.[9][10]

Boston Breakers

The day after her release by the Washington Spirit, Stengel was selected off waivers by the Boston Breakers. She appeared in 12 games for the Breakers in 2017.[11]

Newcastle Jets (loan)

In October 2017, Stengel returned to Australia, joining Newcastle Jets for the 2017–18 W-League season.[12] Stengel scored 10 goals for the Jets and finished second in the Golden Boot race behind Sam Kerr. Newcastle finished in third place and returned to the Finals series for the first time since the 2008-09 season.

Stengel returned to Newcastle for the 2018–19 W-League season.[13]

Utah Royals

After the Boston Breakers folded ahead of the 2018 season, Stengel was selected by the Utah Royals FC in the Boston Breakers dispersal draft.[14] Stengel appeared in 23 games for the Royals. She scored a team leading six goals and scored the first brace in Royals history.[15]

Stengel returned to the Royals for the 2019 season. She appeared in all 24 games and scored 2 goals.[15]

Houston Dash

On January 8, 2020, the Utah Royals traded Stengel and a third round pick in the 2020 NWSL College Draft to the Houston Dash in exchange for their second round picks in the 2020 and 2021 College drafts.[16] She was waived by the club in May 2021.[17]

Liverpool

NJ/NY Gotham FC

On July 5, 2023, Liverpool loaned Stengel to American club NJ/NY Gotham FC until September 3, 2023.[19] The loan was later made permanent, with her returning to the US full time ahead of the WSL season.[20]
