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, I have had many mediums tell me I have a bad energy attatched to me, blocking my spirit guides and placing me in the wrong place at the wrong times. But I am not sure if this is true and what can I do about it?!?!?!?! Please help!
Hi, Theresa…Lost my Son tragically back in 2003….Any time you could arrange for me to meet you would be appreciated…Miss him so much. Will try to be flexible…trust in your abilities. Thank you, Barbara LaRue
We’re 3 sisters, NYC based, lost our friend /mother on June 18 this year, 3 days and she’s gone, my younger sister (48) Florida, suffering from extreme guilt from not visiting enough, just to hear a reassuring word will allow my sister to move to that peaceful,place that you help people get to and she will maybe stop crying and get some of her life and ability to work back
My Moms been strong and visits me in huge ways, moves coins, words thru the radio, but my sister needs more, a direct word to her
How can she get a reading ? Your great and a beautiful help to all those people.
My daughter passed away 18 years ago on October 13. I am so hoping she will seek me out on that date when you will be at The Tropocana in AC. I was able to get tickets for the three o clock show. I miss her every day.
See you then.
Also do you still book readings at peoples homes?
Hoping to meet you.
Dear Theresa, I need desperately to have a reading by you. My dad passed may 22nd, 3 years and four months ago. I was his caregiver. My dad was a doctor and he went downhill very rapidly. My sister accused me to the state that I abused my beloved father and neglected him. I had to prove my innosence. The last 1 and 1/2 of my dad’s life the State stepped in, limiting my time with my dad – my dad, my best and only friend, my mentor, my companion, my confidante, etc., etc., etc – to 3 – yes, 3 – hours supervised weekly. I never again was alone with my dad. I feel I NEED you desperately to move forward, as this consumes every waking moment. I would also like to know about my dear mother – who would give you the shirt off her back – who passed years and years ago.
I need you to go forward or backward. I need you to live again.
I look forward to your contact of me.
Thank you kindly.
Most sincerely,
Tracy

Hi Theresa, I met you very briefly at the rest stop in CT when you were on your way to Lowell Mass for a show on Sat Sept 7th. I have dark brown short hair.

Please let me know. I would really, really love to see you again. Thanks Susan
