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 Theresa my name is Cathy Fachini. And I live up in Canada, my Daughter and I watch your show every week, we would like to make an appointment with you. We are sure we will wait a while for one. but that’s ok.
Please let me know if it’s possible. We are willing to make the trip to new York
Thank you and hope to hear from you
Theresa – Do you do phone readings? I am in San Antonio, TX but will travel to NY for a reading if I have to. I have questions about my husband, Chuck. Although I am in therapy, I am a full believer in all things paranormal including mediums,psychics and all but it is difficult to find a dedicated one, and I feel you could help me. What do you charge for a phone reading (if available) and how do you accept payment? My yorkie got out of the house while I was at the ER last month but 2 years is a little bit long to wait for you to try to read about him or if there is any way to find him.

Theresa, you are my Angel. I lost my 5 month old granddaughter in my care and I could not bring her back even with CPR. I have been having a real hard time for 17 months wondering if she is ok and if it is my fault. Any help would help. Thank you very much.
I tried the “new” website that we are suppose to be able to reach her at and there was nothing there but a picture of her. I’, not in an area where i could actually meet with Theresa but I do have a couple of questions for her.

Theresa,
Briefly…I have the gift. When I was young, too many people (strangers) came through and I learned to block it. My sister and her husband have lost two children in four years. Is it possible to open the pathway for those close to me (Sister, Brother-in-Law, and nephews) and to only specific souls?
Is my grandparents trying to contact me and has my grandfather given me sides before?
Ilove watching your show. You have a wonderful gift,And sharing that gift with others is great. I and my daughters would love to have a reading with you. If you could fit us in at anytime We would love to hear from you. Thank You.
Could I schedule a reading with you? Thank you
Theresa, my name is Audrey. My boyfriend to 8 years and father to 3 kids reasently lost both to his parents and he was an only child. It has DRAMATICALLY affected him as a person. I never watched your show until reasently. It made me cry. Not an easy thing to do. I REALLY think u could make a substantial difference in his life if u could have communication with his parents. PLEASE! HUMBLEY,Audrey Garrett.
Dear Theresa,
I realize you are a very busy person, even without your gift, full time wife and mother is a huge undertaking in itself! Although your gift does make you very special. I feel you have a very loving and wonderful soul who unfortunately, no matter how much you would love to, can’t help everyone. There just isn’t enough of you to go around. I realize this a total long shot, but I have to try. My whole family is in total chaos. I pray, I meditate and I’m doing my very level best to keep it together. I try to just take it one day at a time, do what I have to do and deal with things as they come, but even though I refuse to let my faith be shaken, I don’t know how long I can hold out against the forces that are coming against me. If there is any way you can be of some help, and if you can manage to find some time, maybe you could e-mail me and I can fill you in on a little more of the problem. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Donna Serrett
P.S. I adore your show, you are absolutely adorable with, what seems to be a very supportive husband and very sweet and well mannered children that love you very much.
