About my Guests:
Deborah Olenev CCH RSHom (NA) began her homeopathic studies in 1983, shortly after the birth of her daughter, who experienced a vaccine injury. Driven by a desire to support her family’s health, she trained extensively in New York City with visiting homeopaths such as Dr. Roger Morrison, Dr. Sheilagh Creasy, George Vithoulkas, Vega Rozenberg, and Robert Stewart, and completed the three-year ESSH course with Rozenberg and Stewart. She apprenticed with Randall Neustaedter in California, gaining experience in running a private homeopathic practice. In 1993, she was among the first applicants for the CHC exam, earning professional recognition. Over her 42-year career, she has focused on integrating intellect, intuition, and spiritual insight into her practice, emphasizing individualized remedies and constitutional care.

Deborah earned her B.A. from Barnard College/Columbia University and has raised three children using homeopathy, now enjoying her role as a grandmother. For the first seventeen years of her practice, she repertorized by hand before transitioning to software, and has now returned to hand repertorization to deepen her understanding of materia medica. She continues to work with a guiding inner teacher, combining analytical rigor with spiritual insight in her approach. Currently in her sixties, she practices homeopathy full-time with a balanced schedule, intending to continue serving patients while spending time with her family.
