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.”

I want to help my grandaughter Haylee to come to some kind of closure from her grandfather’s passing in March of 2012. It was so sudden and so very hard for everyone. We have had so much death in our family that it’s getting harder for us to move forward. After watching your show she asked me if I thought you could help her contact papa Ted. If it is possible for you to contact us that would be a blessing to us. Thank you so very much.
Hello Theresa, my father passed away in March 1st 2007 of lymphoma and I just can’t get over his death. He was my rock, my soul, and my life. I do not know how to live without him. Sometimes I think of siucide to be with him again. Please, if you can, give me a sign, or somehow let me know that he is with me and I am going to get through this. Can people die of grief? My heart is broken, and I feel I will die of grief and depression. I live in Sahuarita, Arizona, near Tucson. My address is 457 w. calle sedillo Sahuarita, Az. 85629. I heard from your show that you are going on a road trip. If you are ever in the area, please feel free to stop by anytime. I do not have a lot of money, but will give you whatever I have. Thank you for at least taking the time to read this email. I truly appreciate what you do for everyone in their time of need and am grateful for your warmth and kindness you express to everyone you come in contact with in this life. Much love and light~ Mintha
Lost mom and dad and it has been difficult
Bless you Theresa..I watch your show faithfully and I am heart warmed when you help others see that there is life after death..I myself am like the gentleman who wanted to know who would be on the other side to greet him…I have lost a brother, father,whom I was not reunited until I was around 35 yrs..Then, in 2001 I lost my husband of almost 34 yrs..I am still so heavy hearted as he doesn’t come to me like I so wished he would..I was a one of five abandoned children, and lived in a hard life foster home..I met my husband and he taught me how to lift my head and be just as worthy as everyone else..When he passed Theresa, my world crashed even though we had two boys,I wanted nothing but to be with him..I’m still having a hard time even though I hope to be with him again..I know a reply from you may take a very long time to receive but, I have lived eleven yrs without “my Mickey” and patience is a virtue..Thank you

I lost my twin sister to breast cancer in 2005. Although it was a tragic to our family we have gone through alot. My twin sister had two children which are very close to me and my family. Her daughter married in 2009. Her new husband was very close to her dad. In 2011 her husband was murdered by her very own father…at a job site. The family have gone through a very hard time and we need to know how, why this all happen. I ended up living at my niece ;s house for six weeks while she was going through this terrible tragedy..Can you help us at all in giving us some peace of mind.
You are blessed with such an amazing gift. I only wish every one had a Medium in their family! I am blessed with a beautiful family and have lost some of the most important people in my life. I just don’t feel like I “feel” loss anymore. I feel like I can’t grieve. I am a person that takes pride in helping others and I feel this tremendous need to know my loved ones are ok. I am one and a million I am sure, on your waiting list but it would be amazing to meet you and hear if there is any peace to help me feel again. I will come to you if you prefer. Please contact me…I don’t care if its years from now. Thank you.

I lost my mom on july 31, 2012. She had alzheimers but died of pneumonia and congestive heart failure. It is still a shock because I cared for her 24/7 for 6 yrs. completely by myself. I miss her so much I can’t even put it into words. It was a shock to me because I took her for a foot appt. & dr. suggested she be admitted to the hosp. for antibiotics for the foot infection and then would go home or to a SNF for a few wks. Death never entered my mind & a few days later she died. The pnemonia didn’t show up until in the hospital and she always had a strong heart. Please let me know she is safe and happy and at peace & with my father. I am so worried about her. I think of her 24/7 and am so heart broken. Thank you.
I know you are really busy but I was put on the list over 2 years ago and I still haven’t heard anything. I was hoping to have heard as I am undergoing major surgery on Jan 4th. I have two little ones and I am petrified. My mother in law passed before I met my husband and i believe she is with me in our home.
please let me know how to set up a reading…….evenvia phone
Dear Theresa,I lost my brother two months ago to a sudden, tragic death. I am heartbroken and am desperate to know if he is at peace. I was very protective of him and loved him very much. Towards the end of his life he suffeed from anxiety and depression. I think you are amazing! Alisha
I need to connect with my Dad, Please help me.
Thank You.
I would like to book a personal reading for my Mom and I with Theresa. Please let me know how this is done. Thanks so much, Jenn Bladinucci
Dear Theresa,
I have been obsessed with viewing your show and would love to arrange a private session. As noted in your articles, there is a two year wait list to accomplish this goal. However, I am a three time Cancer survivor and time is of the essence and I do hope that I would be able to keep such an appointment with you.
Perhaps you might review this problem and make an exception to a two year waiting period. I do so need to share a session with you for the sake of my love ones.
Thank you for your consideration of my dilemma.
Yours Ever Sincerely,
Fran White
