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.”

Dear Theresa, My name is Christa. I am formerly from Long Island. I moved to PA with my entire family 9 years ago. Just recently we lost my dad and my mother has not recovered from it. She carries so much guilt over his death that I do not know what to do for her anymore. My dad was a gentle soul who had died from prostate cancer. I had a few dreams about him but my mom just wants to know if he is ok. I really want my mother to be happy and have a sense of closure to move on. Thank you, Christa Pettit

i am interested in setting up a session with you.my girlfriends son has past and she is having a hard time with his passing.we watch your show and love it but it would be great if i could set a session with you to help her to understand thanks michelle
If you do come to St. Louis, Missouri, I hope I can
get the opportunity to talk with you. It would mean
so much to me.
I am at peace with the losses of my loved ones so far (I believe they are nearby and watching over me) , but ever since I discovered your show, have had the feeling that they would tell me something through you that I can’t make out on my own. You don’t surround yourself with layers of “stuff” ~ aren’t afraid to let things fall where they may ~ and things that you say seem really clear. I am wondering what the message from my loved ones is? Peace to you!
I wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your program.
You give so much joy and happiness to those who are
in such pain. You are a true Blessing. My heart has
been broken since I lost both of my parents within
a year of each other. I am a only child, 62, and they were my life. We had an extremely close relationship, one which many will never experience.
It has been two years and I cannot find peace. I
need to know if they are okay and at peace. I am
being treated for depression, but feel empty and so
alone. I don’t know if you are coming to St. Louis,
Missouri anytime in the future, but hope you will
consider St. Louis.
Thank-you for all the good you do for those who
need to hear from their Loved Ones. God Bless
I LOSE MY DAUGHTER 2009 IT IS BROKEN MY HEART I LIKE TTO KNOW WAY PLEASE CALL GOD BLESS
