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.”

Mind and would love to Get an apt with you at most early convienance! Your show is great and you help so many with peace of mind! I hope to find some through your gift as well! God Bless….
I really need a message from “Spirit” and I feel if you get intouch with me, I’ll know they want to talk ti me also! I was a skeptic before I found you. My only question is why haven’t the ultimate questions been answered like What happens step for step when we pass? Is heaven and hell real? Does it depend on your what you believe in? FILL US ALL IN!!!
I love your show, I thoroughly believe in you and wish that I lived closer to you. My sister has passed and I would love to be able to talk to her or to hear from her. I will keep trying to get an appointment with you. Thank you for your gift.
I lost my Grandfather who i loved dearly when I was 12 years old. I’m in my forties now. I need to hear from him…..I talk to him all the time and talk to him at the cemetary, but never get any response. I won’t say how he died, but it was very horrible and unexpected. I also had a cousin that died when we were in our 20’s that I would like to hear from…..Just alot of unanswered questions and WHYS????? Please help me get some kind of closure..
It still bothers me very badly everyday! Thanks!!
I think you are doing a great service may god be with you.
Do you readings over the phone. I would like to know the price. I need to hear from my father.
I would love to have a reading with Theresa (but I am in VA). I love the show, I never miss it ! I have lost my husband suddenly in 2000 and my fiance in 2011. Now my newborn grandson is smiling and talking (cooing)at images over his head, and I snapped pictures with my digital camera and there are orbs over his head. I would like to know if there is an angel watching over him.

Theresa, my daughter, Lauren, was fortunate enough to meet you and Little Larry in a Target store in Bel AIr, MD in January, 2012. SHe called me at work because she was so excited to meet you and you were kind enough to get on the phone with me to say hello. After my daughter walked away from you, you pursued her a couple of aisles away and “read” her. This has been one of the greatest thrills of her life and we have been fans of your show since it began. She and I would love to get on your waiting list to have a reading with you, and if you are back in our neighborhood visiting your family, we would love to take you out to dinner. Keep up the great job you do and God Bless you. P.S., I’m right with you with the hairspray and nails!
