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.”

Can you please let me know if you are available in the next year and what would be the cost for your attendance.
Thank you
I am visiting my grandmother very often now that she is back from being away at a home due to congestive heart failure. Their was nobody in the apartment for two months(or at least that’s what we believe) but ever since we got back there has been a lot of spiritual activity. Our dog often stops from doing whatever she does and just looks all over the apartment then comes by me or my grandmother as if she’s protecting us. Our musical snow globes go off at random times. My grandmother once believed it was her mother here with us but when the dog looks all over the room it leads us to believe that there are multiple spirits here. If you have the time to reply back with either advice or an opening for a meeting with you please do!
I love your show, I am wondering what holds for me for 2013-such as finance, finding love, and future
I was born in Dec 4
i lost my 6 year old son and my father i would like to know how they are doing.and are they around me.
Hello theresa, I like your show, my mother pass away, and I went to see her in my dream at night. I love my mom, can u help me please
I have dreams all the time only of me with people I love who have died. I keep dreaming that I am with these people over and over again. Although my son’s father has passed and I loved him so much it bothers me that he is not in my dreams. I would never want to stop dreaming of those I do dream of but worry that my sons father did not ever really love me.
My husband and I have been watching your show and we love it. However it is a little scary for me and my husband laugh’s at me all the time regarding this. I lost my father seven years ago, and would love to know alot of answers to questions that I have of him. My husband (Jeff) will comment while watching your show, bet PAPA (my Dad, that is what the grand kids called him) would be turning over in his grave if he know what the family has done since his pasting. I would love to have a reading if you are in the area.

I saw you on Dr. Oz this evening. I would like to meet with you or have a phone conversation regarding my deceased son Jordan. I was told he committed suicide, but I don’t know if I believe this. Something just seems so very wrong. The Police didn’t even bother to do any type of investigation. They just told me the totality of the scene made them believe it was suicide, but couldn’t give me any specifics; and didn’t want to. I wasn’t even able to see or identify my son, he was taken straight to the Medical Examiner and my request to see him was refused. Then I was made to have the body transferred to a funeral home and told I could see him there. The funeral home stated they didn’t allow anyone to view the bodies until they are prepped for burial, but I literarly cried hysterically begging to see my son and they made an exception. It’s bad enough to have a son die but to have the Police & Medical Examiner’s treatment & policies like this are just plain really bad. What if it hadn’t been my son??? Some things just don’t make sense. If it was a suicide, how could I have failed my son I loved so very much? I have been blaming myself everyday since the day he died on October 14, 2008. Please I need to know if it was my fault, it’s killing me.
