Stone's central interests include the development of the self,
empathy, narcissism, shame, envy, rage and the group-self. He is
concerned with several aspects of clinical technique and is
especially sensitive to our co-creation of so-called "difficult
patients". His understanding of dreams as both personal and group
products which manifest visual narratives will be of particular
interest to students of the social and collective unconscious.
Stone's work with narcissistic and borderline patients developed in
parallel with his work with the chronically mentally ill, who are
often institutionalised. He demonstrates that group therapy for
such patients is not only a matter of containment and holding in
the service of administrative control, but also involves
interpretative work based on an understanding of the primary need
for a good enough self-object.
