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.”

Mrs Caputo,
I am originally from NY (Rockland County)and I am having a difficult time with some issues and I also just lost someone extremely close to me. I was wondering if you would do a phone reading since I now live in Leland, NC and caring for my elderly mother. If you’d contact me via email (I don’t want to post my phone number)I would be very grateful. Also if you do phone readings how much would it be. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Susan Stroh
I would love to have a reading from you.
Theresa, I would so love to talk with you I can feel your energy even when I watch your shows. Is there anyway that you can do phone contact? A new chapter is starting in my life and I just don’t know what to do. I pray all the time for God’s help and maybe I am missing something he is telling me. I live alone and at this time I am not working. Please help me. I live in Montana. I would truly love to talk with you and get some insight. Sincerely,
Leeann

Mrs. Caputo,
At the beginning of each of your shows, the camera pans and I see a statue of a Fairy. Is this at a cemetery? Whenever I see that Fairy, I feel very peaceful. I would like to visit it.
I like the way you lift the sadness off of the shoulders of people and replace it with peace.
Thank you for sharing your most beautiful gift.

i found white uncooked rice in my bedroom floor. I would like to know what that means. I stepped in it not my husband. We just returned home from north Carolina, I went upstairs to un pack and stepped in it.
Please contact me re my loved one. I’m in anguish, utter pain over the loss of my Son. I never thought I’d be doing this but I’ve watched your program often and feel you can help me to heal.Thank you.
I have watched your show every since it first aired
last year. You really have a special gift and I
would love to meet you someday.
Last year, 2 or 3 days after Christmas I was shopping in Bloomingdales at Walt Whitman. I
had lost my wallet and thought I left it in
Bloomingdales, I was running through the store and
heard your voice and we were face to face, I stepped
around you but felt a sense of peace. I did find my
wallet at the Brighton store, I was very happy but
wished that I had an opportunity to meet you.
I am the only person left in my immediate family, I
have lost my Dad, brother, sister and Mom. After my
mom died I found out she was adopted the family I
once knew was really not my biological family. I
think I just want to know that my family is ok and
my Mom is with her family. Thank you for taking the
time to read my letter. Sincerly, Susan Brodmerkel

Hi Theresa,
My name is lucy. I watched your show for the first time last night.and loved it. I believe in people like u so much. I never went to a medium before but i have gone to other people to find out some things that i need to know about my self and other family matters.
My dad died when i was 12 years old, and i never had the chance to say good bye to him. Now im 51 and that feeling of never saying good bye to him is eating me alive. I have had so manny sorrows in my life between my son, a bad marridge,and just every day life sometimes i wonder how can i continue.
I live in R.I. and would love to meet u or talk to u . Even if i have to go see u i will.
Thank you so much
Lucy.
