Matthew D. Dovel, President & Founder of International Suicide
Prevention (non profit), Editorial
Board Member of the International Journal of Emergency Mental Health and Scientist in Human Behavioral
Modification has dedicated his life’s work to understanding and
preventing suicide, education services to reduce suicide rates, providing
post-suicide support for families and providing tested result based solutions
for depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and suicidal ideation.
An innovative visionary, Dovel believes
that change is essential if we’re serious about reducing the alarming
statistics of non-fatal and fatal suicidal outcomes. He’s leading the push to
overhaul how we’ve traditionally managed suicide prevention and he is at the
forefront of the ground-breaking change. For three-decades, his pioneering
work has been performance based research, development and application of new
procedures for addressing stigma, identification, and permanent removal of intense
emotional suffering (which has been determined to be the cause of suicidal
thoughts). His theories and studies have culminated in what is officially
termed—‘4 Phase’.
4 Phase is a quick and easy four-step
technique—that can fit on a pocket card—and be carried out to change the
thoughts of individual experiencing suicidal thoughts. The process activates
the control of a naturally occurring phenomena allowing individuals to
discharge the intensity of any traumatic experience. 4 Phase has been tested over many years and drew remarkable
results in 2006 (and continues to) during a 24/7 Suicide Prevention hotline
run by International Suicide Prevention and reduced call times from 2-3
hours to less than 20 minutes.
In 2005, Dovel delivered Suicide Intervention
training at the Cree Reservation in Oujé-Bougoumou,
Canada and the 4 Phase technique reduced suicides from 1 non-fatal
attempt per and 1 fatal outcome per month to 1 non-fatal attempt per month
and ZERO fatal outcomes in the subsequent six months. 4 Phase procedures were officially
released on the International Suicide Prevention website in 2014—which
attracts upwards of 300 visitors per day. Since the launch, the Hotline calls have dramatically
decreased from multiple daily calls to a couple per week. Dovel has also
determined that individuals should not
be removed from a vocation due to depression, anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress,
or suicidal thoughts and he confidently credits 4 Phase to being able to address and rectify the ideology swiftly
and without the need for medication.
ARMY TRAINING:
Dovel
has provided contracted training during National Depression Screening Week in
2005 for the US Army at Fort Benning, Georgia to deliver training, across all
levels to active duty personnel during pre-deployment and re-deployment and
included Physicians, Medics, Nurses,
Behavioral Health Care Providers, and Chaplains on the warning signs

EDUCATION:
Traditional studies with emphasis in—Psychology, Biochemistry, Computer
Science, Organic Chemistry, Civil Engineering, Quantum Mechanics, and
Physics. Unconventional studies—Nero-Linguistic
Programming, Hypnosis. Behavioral Studies: Ethical and Unethical Behavioral
Modifications. Independent research—Relationships
between the conscious and subconscious, and how we process decision making
data. Reverse engineering of memories using phasing that targets specific
memories. Memory mapping of components: sensory data, intensity and the
emotions that are attached.
VOLUNTEER CONTRIBUTION:
For
the majority of families exposed to suicide, there is no funding or insurance
to cover the cost of bio-hazardous removal. Dovel has volunteered his time
over 30 years, to clean suicide scenes to detach family members from the
trauma.

Leatherman was 24 when she hanged herself in her grandmother’s shower in 2010. Why do People Commit Suicide? In the field of psychology there is currently a massive gap between what is being taught, applied and propagated, and the new solutions available for mental disorders. In order to see the answers you seek, you must first ask the right questions! Why is not as important as HOW! Built into the making of each and every human on the planet is an innate characteristic called the survival instinct, which has only one purpose, protect life! Or, keep you safe at all costs. The survival instinct has three hierarchical threat levels it has been programmed to be aware of; 1) the Soul, 2) the Body, and 3) the Mind. With the highest level of threat being, when the SOUL is in danger. There is only one way anyone ca...
