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.”

My best friend & mother,Judi Kelly, passed July 3,2012 @ 10:05 a.m. My sister,Lisa Joy White, disappeared November 1,1974. Since my mother passed,I have been getting STRONG messages,I feel,from her regarding Lisa’s abduction. And in addition to this,author Matthew Phelps, is in the process of doing a documentary about several missing girls from this area. I honestly feel that with your help I can add the “guidance” needed to bring the information needed to FINALLY close this horrific journey my family (as well as the Pocketts,Blish’s& a few more)has been traveling for FAR too many years. These “signs” are fresh to me since my mom passed (well,actually,about 2 1/2- 3 weeks after) but haunt me….I feel I “KNOW” something that may lead to “something” or someone….PLEASE HELP!!!! Thank you & God Bless
My sister and I would love to see you.We have had someone pass very close to both of us. I also adopted my granddaughter and she has always said all these little thing that make you stop and listen. Now she is talking about not being around very long. God wants her to be with him, she is 7. She has also been telling people things that are going to happen. She is scared to sleep alone. How do I find some place to take her or someone? We all would love to hear from you Thank you Sherry
Is it possible to meet you to for a private consolation? If so, please let me know. Many thanks Caroline

Hi Theresa..am blown away every time I watch you and would love to make an appointment with you. I lost my Mom and sister within 8 months of each other and am missing them both so much. I live in California and am willing to travel East to see you. I am willing to wait as long as possible to see you. Thanks
My sister Shelia passed away on January 20 2010 at home of colon cancer. It was very hard on all of us but it was really hard on her kids especially the youngest son. Anyway the reason I am writing to you is to give them closure and let them know their mom is at peace and no longer suffering and she’s with our mom in Heaven.
WHY WHY DO A COMMERCIAL AND LOWER YOUR CREDIBILITY
Hi Theresa my name is Yasmin and i’m writing you because i had a sister that was missing for 4 years an the police just found her murder can you help me find her killer plz?
Hello Teresa,
Love your show look forward to the new season in September 2012. If there’s a guy with tatoos and worked as an L.A. Deputy Sheriff coming to you that’s my brother.
Hi Theresa I have watched you on T.V. since you have started. I can’t believe how true and real you are. I live in Nova Scotia Canada. I know you are the real thing. I also have lost my beautiful girl on her 17th birthday and would love to have a reading with you. There is not a day I don’t think of her. Can you help me with this. Thanks and God bless You !!
Hi theresa (yahatey) means hello! I lost my daughter 20 yrs ago and my older brother 27 yrs ago. My daughter was born premie and my brother was my bestfriend. it only seems as though there still around and sometimes i feel so lonely without them. i love and truly missed them. i would really love if you could respond with my deepest loving care.
HI Theresa,
Let me start by saying i’m big fan of you & your show. it makes me want to travel to meet with you & have a reading, which is really important to me, because coping with my lost & trying to let go & moving on is easier said then done & I feel like I need a reading to help me. please contact me back, thank you
I contacted you about 6 months ago, wanting to see you, I lost twin girls back in l974 and would like to see you. Also when are you starting a new episode? thankyou and God bless.
Theresa, I would really like if you could met with me. I lost my dad 5 years ago when I was 12, and still after 5 years it’s so hard to cope with, he was my bestfriend and my “rock”. I can’t help but to blame myself for his death. I think about it all the time and I just can’t “let go” and move on with life cause of the thought it was my fault. I just want him to know that I’m sorry, I know he is always with me, but I just want to know he knows how truely sorry I am and that I love and miss him more than anything and to know I’d give anything to have him with me and his new grand baby.
I just feel lost.
