However, I am trying to implement some stabilization technique that involves 2nd order derivatives of the shape function, like the divergence of the symmetric gradient of the displacement vector (actually, the shape function). For now, I can only think of selecting the components from the Hessian of the shape function to compute the div of the symmetric gradient. Is there any way in deal.ii to directly extract such values like divergence of the symmetric gradient of shape functions?

There is no easy way. You'll have to compute the tensor of second derivatives and sum over the appropriate set of elements.
