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.”

Can’t read your website. It shows a pic of you but no other information. Please, let people know how to reach you. Obviously your show has given people a great deal of longing and hope, and it would be kind to give them some way of getting in touch with you.
Not many people really realize that life and death are one and that we are never really separated from the “dead” ones we have loved. I hope you’ll make it easier for these folks. (It would be fun to do a reading but I don’t feel a pressing need…)

How do I make any appointment and how much is a reading?
Please add me to the waiting list, I tried the new website and it says “coming soon”. I’ve lost many loved ones, including 2 children. I suffer from post traumatic stress disorder attributed mostly to these losses. It has taken such a toll on me I now live on disability, unable to work. I hope this message somehow speaks to you, I feel you could really help me.
Thank you,

I love the show & believe in you. I would love to have an appointment & a reading!
Theresa,
I’ll be 80 years young this coming Friday 4/27. My mother, who died about 25 years ago was a troubled soul for most of her life and she died feeling unhappy and unloved. For many years I thought I hated her but I did a process where I forgave her and told her I loved her which I never remember doing while she was alive. I’m just wondering if I helped set her soul at peace?
Thank you,

Theresa, I watch you all the time. All my immediate family members have passed. 2 of them just last year about 9 weeks apart. 1 of them tragically and the others thru sickness. I am truly lonely and really need to here from them. I will fly to NY to see you but I would love a private reading. I pray I hear from you.
Thank you and God Bless,
Donna
