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.”

I’ve been watching your show on TLC and I keep thinking you are talking to me through the progam and others you have on your show. I know this may soud strange but I believe someone I know is talking through you to get my attention and I hae been trying to get an appointment with you for months now so I ‘ve decided to go this route.
My husband has COPD and I don’t think he will be around for two more years. Since the loss of our son, he doesn’t feel he has a purpose here anymore. He is on disability and is in constant pain which only adds to feelings of helplessness. We would like to make an appointment for your next available time if you could let me know how to go about it. Thank you so much, Cara

Hi Theresa, You are fantastic!!! I live on Long Island also in Huntington. My sisters only child passed away ten years ago and she is still living with horrific emotional pain. would like a reading with you as I need to help my sister so she maybe find some peace. Thank you Theresa and may you always be blessed with this gift you have to help all people.
Please help!!??
Hi! I realize you are sooo very busy, however, I was wondering if I could book and appointment with you sometime in 2013. I am going to make a trip to NYC and will schedule it when I can get an appointment. My husband passed 13 years ago at a young age and my children and I are still having trouble coming to grips with it. I know I shouldn’t, but I feel guilty. I also lost my father a few years back and I feel guilty as I am the one that told him it was ok to “go home”! Please help! Thank you so much for what you do!
I knew before we had our first date, I would marry my beloved husband Pat, I had my engagement ring after 9 days, and we had almost 32 years together when he passed away very suddenly on St. Patrick’s Day, his day. He has been gone for 25 months now. I am a firm believer in Pennies from Heaven, and I have a wooden container with all the ones I have found. I believe this is his way of telling me he is ok, or what I am doing is the right thing. I miss him horribly. So much for our growing old together, he was just 64 when he passed away. I am 61 now. How would I get in touch with you? Thanks just for listening. Wendy
Hi, Theresa my dad passed in 2009, and I have alot of questions that need answers will you please contact me I was flipping threw channels one night and watched your show and I just wanted to let you know that what you do is very amazing! Thanks.
It may be Critical that we either meet or talk for a reading… There are very very strong spirits needing to speak to you and me… They will continue until they are heard… I look forward to my reading.
Theresa, I was flipping through channels a few weeks ago and seen your show. My heart stoped. My only child daughter Nicki passed in a car wreck and I was on the phone with her. My life has stoped since her death. I know you could help me. I would love to have an appt with you. God bless.
Dear Theresa,
I know you are a very busy woman, but i am desperate to talk to you. I am 27 years old and have lost so very many people in my short life. I know that fate has much to play with this, so i hope you can contact me at your earliest conveniece, I truly believe you are the only one who can help me. Thank you and God Bless:)
