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.”

Theresa Caputo, my friend Kelli Neal died last year Janurary 3rd 2013.
She was one of my best friends and I want her back… Although that can’t happen I was hoping you could talk to her and get back to me.
I really hope you could ask her questions and then tell me what she says…
Thanks! *fingers crossed*
Dear Teresa, I am a total believer in the afterlife. I have lost both of my parents and 3 of my brothers, two suddenly from heart problems. I know my mom comes through my tv but I would like to make a appointment with you to see if they are all together. I live on Cape Cod in Provincetown Massachusetts, but I would travel any where to have a reading. Thank you for any consideration you will give me as I’m sure you get thousands of requests a day. I love your show I have just watched it all day today onTLC.
Dear Theresa
My husband and I have recently watched your show for the first time, you are truly a blessing. I look forward to watching you as much as possible. I hope that I can talk with you one day to find answers to questions that might heal a broken heart. I have faith that you are a very special woman and very blessed. Thank you for sharing your gift with others.
God Bless

Theresa,
I want to make it clear, I do not want a reading. I would like to talk to you about your gift. I have dreams and I see things that I cannot explain. They are not like what you experience but I want to understand it. I want to know if you could help me figure it out. I know you have helped other people you know sort out their gifts. Please help guide me in this.
I know you have alot of people requesting your assistance and I am sorry that I am asking you to help me with this. I just am not sure who to go to that would believe me.
I would like to say that I believe you are amazing and I would like to know how much your readings cost. I trully believe you touch people’s lives and I would love to get a reading. Thanks for doing what you do. Thanks
Theresa, My son was murdered on November 8 2011 he was 31 years old. He was never in trouble graduated from high school with honors went to college and graduated and had a good career His sister and 5 year old nephew had been living with him for 3 years and he was helping his sister go to college. I loved my son very much we talked on the phone everyday. He was kind loving gentle He was loved by so many people. I have cried everyday since it happened because he was also my best friend. I just need to know that he is at peace. My family is having a hard time dealing with his death. Please help us to move on.
Hi Teresa,
I love your shows, and I am a believer, and I could really use your help. How can I contact you?

If u can give me a reading, I will patiently wait. I’m struggling to move on since my husband passed 5 yrs ago
Hi Theresa,
First of all I think your amazing and very special!!! I would give anything to have a reading with u in person or over the phone, I am desparate to connect with my little cousin, she was a victim of a murder suicide committed by her WANG husband! I torment myself constantly wondering is she ok and why did this happen, also we aren’t really sure how she died due her body being so badly decomposed and then set on fire! Please help me to connect with her so that me and my family can finally have some kind of closure! Please contact me at ur earliest convenience
Thanks in advance,
Ashley Duesterberg
Theresa I absolutely love your show and your family. You are surely blessed with such a lovin family. At an early age I would see spirits and feel them. Now, I still see them and feel them and sometimes hear them. When my mother-in-law passed she came to me (I smelled and felt her)so I could let my husband know she was going to be ok. But I would really like to talk to you and would like to connect with my brother who passed several years ago. Thank you Theresa.
I love, love, love your show. I lived on Long Island for 30 years, and I just saw the season finale tonight. I would love for you to do a reading for me as I turn 60 in October of 2012. Now I have a feeling as to what your rates would be but if you can squeeze in a reading for me, I will sing for you. I really sing. If I could talk to the dead, I could probably conduct my own reading. (I do comedy, too) Of course, I am head-over-heels in lust with the actor Dennis Farina. I have been trying to meet him for 30 years. Now if he had crossed over, I bet I would have a conversation with him already. ha ha ha. Would absolutely love to hear from you!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for sharing your special gift with all of us. The comfort it brings is priceless. I would love to set up an appointment with you for my mom and my best friend. I tried your website but I guess it is not up and running yet. Please advise me on how we can get in touch to make an appointment. Thank you again for all that you do.
