Theresa Caputo, the star of TLC’s series Long Island Medium, says she was 28 when she was first introduced to the possibility that she was a medium. It took another five years for her to actually accept her gift.
“There’s a big difference from when I accepted it to who am I?” Caputo told us. She said she struggled with feeling, “I’m no different than anybody else. Why was I chosen to do this? Why is this my journey?”
The aftermath of 9/11 left her with clarity and a feeling of purpose for what she calls her role in the physical world. Now Caputo spends her days and nights taking her clients on an emotional and spiritual journey with the afterlife. She helps people find closure and/or reconnect some with loved ones who have passed.
UPDATE 2/1/2013 – The BEST way to contact Caputo is through her new website: www.theresacaputo.com
Her phone number that was previously listed here is no longer in service, so we removed from the post. When we last talked to Theresa (January 2012), she told us the best way to reach her is via her new website at www.theresacaputo.com. This was an update to what TLC previously provided (Longislandmedium@gmail.com). That email address we have tried and have never gotten a response. Her wait time is over two years at this point, due to the popularity of the show.
Surprisingly, Caputo has built her career on word of mouth only and has done little to no marketing. When asked if she’s ready for what a TV series will bring as far as popularity, Caputo says: “Absolutely not. I still think this is like a school project. It’s so not reality yet for me. My life is overwhelming as it is, as of right now, my waiting list to get an appointment is… I don’t have any availability until January 2013.”

Hello Teresa,
I loved your show and family. You are truly blessed.
I would love to book a reading.
Thank you and Many Blessings
Hello Theresa,
I realize that it will be almost impossible to get in touch but I have to give it try.I would love to give the gift of reconnecting with a loved one to a wonderful lady named Betty. Without telling you any information about the person that passed I will tell you about her. Betty is the most caring and giving person still after her loss. She gives to everyone and anyone who needs it and never mentions it or asks for anything in return. I think this experience would be priceless for her. She is so deserving of a small piece of happiness there is no words to express how wonderful this would be for her. This is my greatness wish for Betty. Thank you for your time.

Hello Theresa,
I’m 18, and from Texas.
I just begun watching your show recently, when i saw the previews for the season premiere it was just something I knew I’d enjoy.
I’ve always found the supernatural interesting, and what you do i believe is so brave and honorable. You truly help people and it’s just so kind of you.
My father took interest in it, and usually he pokes fun at me always watching the medium & ghost hunting shows.
I’ve lost two of my uncles (his two brothers) to murders over the past few years.
We hope to schedule with you, if my father really gathers the courage to pull through with it.
Thank you for what you do, i have so much respect for you :]
Hi Theresa,
Unable to reach you by phone. Would love to set up a reading. The phone number that was left just rings and rings. How can you be reached.?
Thank you
Please email me. I need questions answered about a family member that passed. I can’t move on until he answers some things. Thanks
It’s been 3 months and 7 days since my father killed himself. We used to be very close…i was a true Daddy’s girl but when I saw him last, before he did it, was when we had an argument 6 months before. I’m at a loss for words; stuck but my mind is racing with thoughts. I find myself looking for signs from him to communicate with me somehow. I just really feel like he’s got to have something to tell me; some kind of closure maybe. Thank you.
Theresa,
Can’t wait until you start touring the country and get down to New Orleans, or if you are contacted by someone, who was very dear to myself and his brother, who passed away suddenly on April 8th 2011.
Hope to hear from you
Hi Theresa,
Was trying to contact you in hopes you may be able to help my father. His girlfriend recently passed away unexpectedly. They had dated in highschool and reconnected about a year ago and tryed to start where they had left off. My dad is having a very difficult time and I was hoping you may be able to give him closure. I feel she may need closure too.I know you are busy and lots of people need your help as well, but I thought maybe if I reached out to you she will too. Please respond if you get this. Thank you!
Christine

My older sister from Pitt. Pa, told me about your show and your website and I had never heard of you and I live in Floral Park, NY right here on LI. I would love the opportunity to share something with you, but I prefer not to leave all the information in writing on this website. Also, I have been sick with Cancer since 07. It sounds like your very busy, but if and when you find the time, you can contact me
WOW!!!!! I haven’t even finished watching your first show and I have already been in tears. I think people like you, with such a great gift, are wonderful. I actually had a medium approach me at the mall at Christmas time. She was amazing. I wish that I had had more time to talk to her. I just wanted to share how wonderful I think all of you are and whether you know it or not you help a tremendous amount of people. Thank you for listening.
Dear Theresa, I want to thank you, first of all, for sharing your spiritual gift. I’m sure you have helped countless souls heal. I have an unclosed grief over the loss of my Aunt and whether it was accidental or intentional. I love her and miss her dearly and I hope she knows that! I would LOVE to schedule an appointment with you, since I know the waiting list is at least a year. If you could please send me more info or maybe future appearances, Thank you, and God bless you!
Dear Theresa,
I just wanted to say bless you for embracing your gift and for helping so many suffering people, heal and find peace. You are an angel on earth!
Bless you, Bless you, Bless you.
