Steve Ira Present, M.S., Ch.T. has a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology (conferred in June of 1986), is board certified in hypnosis by 3 certifying bodies, and is one of the most experienced practitioners of hypnosis in the world.  He has been a much sought after guest expert on public affairs radio and TV shows.

Mr. Present has been seen by over 2.1 Million people TV, while more than 4.2 Million people have heard about his “campaign to change the world with hypnosis” on over 325 radio stations across the country during the early to mid 1990's.

  Over 251,741 individuals have used his unique method of hypnosis.  Those using his method range from international celebrities to major corporations to doctors, lawyers, ministers, and folks from just about every walk of life. .

  He has lectured around the world, teaching his unique method of hypnosis in other countries.

  Mr. Present is a unique individual, not afraid to reveal his “warts” and personal difficulties in public.

  As a young teenager, he first became interested in helping others after his family, going through a major crisis, sought the help of a professional therapist.

  From that point on, Steve Ira Present became dedicated and over time, increasingly passionate about improving the lives of others. He volunteered many hours of work with in-hospital mental patients, some of whom were declared by the courts to be dangerous to themselves and others.

  He also volunteered hundreds of hours as the President of the Psychology Club of his undergraduate college, bringing special events and speakers to fellow students that would help improve their lives. 

 This dedication is why he pursued Graduate training in Psychology.  He did this against the advice of counselors and others, who told him that with his high grades and high standardized test scores he could easily have gotten an MBA from a Top Business School, and earned “big bucks” from day one after graduation.

  However, that was not his passion. 

  Mr. Present wanted to help others who were struggling with their lives succeed, first and foremost.   

  That’s why he spent 2-½ years working in a Miami prison called the Dade County Stockade, teaching prisoners in a 12 room “school” guarded by a 65 year old guard.  He instructed them in the basic educational and life skills that might give them a chance at a successful life without ending up back in jail.

  His burning passion to improve the lives of others is also why he spent an additional 1 ½ years working with juvenile first time criminals, teaching them the life skills they would need to stay out of trouble with the law. 

  And while he knew that these jobs were certainly not where the big money was, he did them anyway, out of his passion to see others overcome their obstacles and improve their lives.  On his CD’s, you will experience his passion, as well as his deeply relaxing and soothing voice.  His clients say the combination makes for magic.

  Please understand this.  Steve Ira Present is not in any way practicing psychotherapy in any form on this website or in any of his products or in any way whatsoever. 

  However, his 4 years of undergraduate study of psychology... combined with what he says felt like a lifetime of additional grueling years of full time, Graduate Level on campus intensive research, study, and interaction with patients certainly have assisted him in understanding the “hidden power” of the subconscious mind. 

 That's the part of your mind that controls your feelings, your habits, your cravings, your behavior, and ultimately, your smoking.  As you will discover on this web page.
