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.”

AI AMD 61 YEARS ON THIS EARTH AND I DESPERATELY NEED SOME ANSWERS. I HAVE BEEN A VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCES SINCE I WAS DEPOSITED INTO FAMILY FULL OF VINDICTION, HURTFUL BEHAVIOR. I WAS DROPPED OFF INTO A SITUATION OF DIRE CONSEQUENCES FELT AT THE AGE OF 3 WHEN I ACQUIRE CONSCIOUS VIBES TO THE UGLY GIVEN TO ME, UNDER THE COVER OF CHRISTAINITY. I WANT TO LIVE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE. I WAS A BABYSITTER AT THE AGE OF 4 – LEFT TO SURVIVE BY MYSELF AGE 4.
I WANT TO BREAK OUT OF MY DEPRESSION, I HAVE BLACKOUTS WHEN THREATENED AND THAT STARTED AT THE AGE OF 5 I THINK.
I would love to talk to you for so many reasons. So many loved ones past away and would enjoy getting to find out how they are. Much love to you and your family and God Bless you for what you do for others. You are truely a gift.
Thank you
Emily

Hi Theresa,
I’ve had a rough 2 1/2 years. My parents where always with me. We had such a strong relationship. They helped me raise my three children and I saw them each and every day. Then, one day my father went into the hospital for open heart surgery and on the same day my mother went into another hospital because her donor kidney was rejecting. My world never be the same again. I no longer have my father. He was my everything but I dont think he knew that. My mother has never been able to come live back home and has suffered so so much. I need to know that my father is with me. I need to know that he is at peace and ok with what happened to him. He suffered like no one should ever suffer and I watched every bit of it. I miss my dad and just want to know that he hasn’t left me. Please contact me for a reading. I will be patient and hopeful that you will do so.
I Pray you can HELP, I lost my dad 10 years ago, we were not on speaking terms an i been carrying this GUILT that he knows i loved him VERY MUCH an he forgives me. i reallly need to know that he is at peace an with my grandparents. He was a TERRIFIC Dad an grandfather.
Thanks for taking time for me an God Bless you an your Family an Thank Them for supporting you, because u seem like a very Caring Lady:)

Sincerely desperate girl
Hello Theresa,
Im not much of a believer, but Im desperate to know.
My gradmother(fathers mother) past away more than a year ago. I was not that close to her or the rest of her family, I don’t even get along with my own father. I have some resentment toward her and my dad side of the family. I always said people who don’t love my mother doesn’t love me either. Most of the time I’m depressed from all the comossion at home, at work, even in my love life.Well right to the point, I wanted to know if she has any messange for me.
Hello Theresa,
After reading all theses comments I doubt you will acutally be able to get to mine. In any case, I have been haunted by the death of a dear friend for the past 12 years. He visits my dreams often but I cant help to feel guilty about his death. Any help would be appriciated.
God Bless
I had a reading before a big big Joke

I know you are so busy and you are such a wonderful ,caring person,that is why you were given the gift..Please and thank you so much Ray
all i want to know is if i am going to make it through my second liver transplant, i have two daughters and worry what to do with them if i dont make it this time
I love how open you are, Just tell it like it is I would love to know about my family, or if there is anyone that would talk to me from the past. My Dad, or G-ma anyone, gardian angels?? I have been told by a person that I have some ability’s. I need to be awear of them I am at times. But when I do see things or just know things My husband an or family memebers get a little perturbed at me an ask me what makes you think that . Like i’m nuts you know I have done this or been this way for yrs and I still get the same tude with it even now that I’m well older, the only person that believes me any,is my 35 yrs old son.
Your Awesome Theresa.

For Gods sake you are just like my best friends that live right next door! Kudos to you and to the wonderful gift you have that helps so many here and on the other side…you go Girl!
Can not wait for this show to air..I lost my dad a few months ago and it was a really big surprise to all of us cause he was only 40 and he had so much going on with him..I have a 3 year old sister who misses him dearly, and I’m recently engaged and won’t have my dad there to walk me down the isle like I hoped…I would love for the chance to talk to him again I’m sure my whole family would cause its still a shock to us that hes gone..
