Catherine
R. Coulter obituary
Catherine Coulter passed away on the evening of
February 24, 2014 at the age of 80.
Her daughter Marian wrote the following:
“I
send to you the tremendously sad news that Catherine passed away at home, from
a heart-related condition. It is a really heavy blow for the whole family.”
Catherine R. Coulter was one of the greatest
homeopaths of recent decades and was well-known for her lively remedy
descriptions.
She was born in 1934 and first encountered homeopathy when she consulted a
homeopath during a holiday in France for treatment of her allergies. She was
asked to return the following day and the homeopath then said to her that he
had consulted the famous American Dr Kent about her case. On returning to the
United States she asked about this Dr Kent, only to be told that he had been
dead since 1916!
Her interest was aroused and Catherine Coulter proceeded to teach herself
homeopathy. She started by “devouring” Boericke, followed by Hering's 10-volume
Materia Medica and finally she stumbled on Kent's Repertory.
She started treating especially friends and family. In the 1970s she met
various homeopathic doctors, who were very impressed by her knowledge of remedies
and asked her to give talks on the subject. Since that time she taught at the
National Center of Homeopathy in Millersville.
Together with Dr A.U. Ramakrishnan, she wrote the
standard work A Homeopathic
Approach to Cancer.
