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.”

Just wanted to know a few things but never could afford to see you love you and your the best I have ever seen
Hello Lisa,
Love your show and also feel you are “real” as I have some abilities >>well thru my dreams but not like you do. Sometimes my loved ones just visit me in my dreams which make me smile.
Would love to meet you one day or see if you have any messages but I know you are very busy since you began the show. Wish you much success and god bless you for helping those loved ones get their message to the loved ones left behind…:)

Hi Lisa,
I love your show and cry with each person that is heartbroken. My husband passed away and I can’t get over it. He was such a dynamic man. My heart aches with the memory of how he suffered.
It has been 11years and I can go back there in an instant. I would love to come talk with you. You make me laugh and you make me cry.
Best Wishes to you.
Betty
Teresa my husband a I would love a reading. We live in Ohio but will travel there tomorrow if we have to. Please contact us, we will do almost anything for just 10 mins of your time. I am so impressed by your readings and I believe you can help us and reasure us that our close people that have passed are ok. We respect your calling.
Thanks you, please call Cheryl from Ohio
Holy molly Teresa, are you one popular lady!! I kinda thought I could find out about seeing you up there in long island but judging from your Facebook and google I don’t have a chance in hell !! LOL I LOVE YOUR SHOW!! I may end up stalking Long Island just to have a chance at being read when you order a burger or pick up your laundry or see a movie with Larry !! But that would be a full time job and I’m kinda busy at the old dairy plant here in Simcoe Ontario, Canada making ice-cream for all the kids in Canada soooo, in the meantime, keep up “the spirit” and I look forward to your next season. God Bless you and your hair!!
A very dear person (mainly during the last 10 years) has just passed away. I need closure for many reasons before I too join him. During the last couple of months he called emailed me and asked me not to forget watch you on TLC. Thank you.
God Bless.
Theresa, I was watching your show today and while watching had the “wierdest feeling.” Something you verified for one of the people was nearly idetical to something that had happened to me several timesover th pas few years. Hopefully my wife and I will eventually be able to schedule a meeting with you. Thak you for having offered hope.
Hey Theresa! You really crack me up! I absolutely love you. Mom passed when I was in the af away from home. Absolutely no closure. The nite before my brother passed I dreamt that he was calling out to me! I absolutely love mon and heino. I would love to hear from them, but… God bless and you take care
Hi Theresa,
My mother died 17 years ago and there is a dove that has shown up many times since her death. I truly believe this is my mom telling me she is watching over me. Sadly I lost 2 dear friends this past year. One 38 and one 45. I worry about them. One had a long battle with cancer and one died suddenly. Please help me know if they are ok? I need to know~ Thanks
My brother John O’Hagan passed last year. i pray for him every day and i just wish to know if he is ok and with our parents. I miss him very much.
