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.”

Hello Theresa! I live on Long Island in Bay Shore. I would love to meet you one day. I think about my grandparents all the time. There is so much going on in my life that I wish they were here. I really love you and think that you are awsome. Hope that one day I can meet you.
Hi Theresa,
I am 74-years-of-age and am a practicing hypnotist, helping people lose weight, overcome addictions, etc. Like you, my business is simply word-of-mouth. For a long time I have been aware that some the the words that I speak are those of spiritual guides for whomever is in a session. Sadly, I have lost many loved ones in my life, but I have always sensed their nearness and know that they have surrounded me with safety nets. I know from experience that the “mind” is the path between soul and spirit. You have a God-given gift. Bless you for having the courage to share this gift with others.
I pray that you have not been affected negatively by “Sandy” and that you and your lovely family are all safe and sound.
Sincerely, Pat Labeda
Hey teresa! My dad died a few years ago. I am kind of skeptical about life after death and all. I believe in, but then i kind of don’t. If there is life after death… wouldn’t my dad have tried to come back and give me a sign telling me that he loves me or he is watching over me? The last time i saw my dad, i was leaving and he walked me to the car. He NEVER does that.. so i thought it was really weird! Well he told me to call him in a few days and i forgot. While i was out watching a bike show, I was calling him, not realizing while i was out having fun, he was dying in the hospital!!! I just want to make sure that he knows i am sorry and i really need some assurance here. I need to get myself to believe that i should have no fear of dying also. Please please please…. contact me!
I would like to know if you are ever gonna be in vermont, I would really like to meet with you. I have so many this in my like that make me unselltle

Can you till me How my Grandma&Grandpa Thomas and Roy doing
Theresa, my sister turned me on to your show. Theresa, this is not for me. I am one of the first four cousins. Our ages are very similar, and friendships growing up as well. My cousin Heather lost her 13 year old daughter to aplastic anemia. Our grandmother is 101, and we haven’t had this kind of thing come through our family the way it did to a child, so loved, so well thought of in the living. I am worried about my cousin Heather. She is so distraught and depressed. I am afraid something may happen to her accidentaly with the prescription drugs etc. I know you are a very busy person, and are in great demand. Our family will pay for any and all of your time. Respectfully Derek.
MY HUSBAND AND I SUFFER THE LOSS OF OUR CHILD, OUR CHILD WAS SEVERLY MULTIPLY HANDICAPPED, WE GRIEVE EVERYDAY AND WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ANY KIND OF MESSAGE FROM OUR CHILD.MY HUSBAND ISNT SURE OF ANY AFTER LIFE, AND FEELS LIKE OUR CHILD IS JUST IN A COLD DARK, DAMP GRAVE. HE IS HAVING A VERY HARD TIME WITH HIS GRIEF.WILL YOU BE IN THE STATE OF KENTUCKY ANY TIME ON ANOTHER TOUR? HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE FOR A READING? PLEASE SEND A REPLY. MAYBE WE COULD COME TO JERSEY TO SEE YOU SOME TIME.
Theresa, I am 17 years old and i live in michigan, recently i lost a friend and their family is very close to mine. I was wondering if you will be visiting the detroit area. I think that a visit with you would help them get some answers and help the rest of the kids in the family understand so that they can move on. Please let me know if a reading with you is possible. thank you.
My mother was adopted and she ask her adopted mother to tell her who her parents were before she died. My mother’s mom saided ” rich people have secrets and that how they want to keep it. Please help !
I’ve never had a reading before. Here for the past months I’ve had dreams about my brother. I find myself thinking about him all the time now. It’s been 26yrs since his passing. Why now? What is he trying to tell me?
I’m in need of asking you what to do because I see spirit in the middle of the night that don’t speak to me. They keep re-occurring, all 7. I’m 53 yrs old and have always seen shadow people. I became very ill and it took 1 1/2yrs to get well. Now I see spirit as if their in a movie, so clear. I feel a great peace that I can’t explain. They don’t scare me, ever. A few people, I knew a family member was with them but I didn’t have a message. How do I develop communication with spirit. I only have strong feelings of a message. What do I do with this? Can you help me? Medical test state I’m not hallucinating, I’m not physically impaired and have no problem with memory.I sustained an extremely mild brain injury from the illnesses (scar on brain). How do I start to develop this communication.I don’t know any one else to ask. Please teach me/advise me on how to learn.
