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 would like to know if Teresa would be able to do a private reading in Stockton when she is here in June . It would mean so much to my wife and me if that could be possible.
Hi Theresa!! I love your show and truly believe you can put my mind at ease about my husband. My brother passed in 2007, my Dad in 2008 and my husband in 2011. I never believed he wouldn’t make it through lung cancer so we never really talked about his passing. I feel very empty and sad that i never gave him a chance to tell me his feelings. Thank you for who you are. Judy

My brother passed away almost 4 years ago. my heart still aches for him.
Hi Mrs. Teresa, i know you have lots of questions to answer but I really need to help out my mom with my grandma, (her mom). My grandma passed away 5 years ago and my mom was her caregiver. It was very stressful on my mom but she loved her mom so much. Her passing took us by surprise and left us clueless. We all miss her and need some closure.
Hi Theresa, my brother passed away almost 4 years ago. I am still in shock. I just want to know if he is with my mom and dad, and he is alright.
I would love for you to do a reading for my son Jason; he has lost his Father to cancer, brother to car accident, Grandmother one year after another. He holds everything in and has had difficulty in grieving as he was so close to all of them.
Thank you for taking the time to read this either way.
My father passed away 4 years ago. He was the most amazing person, father,husband,and papa. It has been so hard for me. My father was my best friend I swear I could be having the worst day, and my Dad would just wink at me and everything just got better. I miss him so bad and would love to know if he is still with me. The other big thing I wanted to say is my mom has taken it very bad. It’s natural i know but I would just love to let her know Dad’s still with you!. I don’t know if maybe it’s in my head but sometimes I really think I can feel when Dad’s around. I told my mom but I don’t think she believed me. I would love to just see the expression on my mom’s face to know if Dad is with her.
I am very depressed that my sister Evelyn passed away 17 years ago because of lupus. She was only 35 and she had a son named Kadeem and ever since than I have been very sad.One day her son went outside and said “mommy mommy” but my mom didn’t see anyone.

Theresa,
I would do anything to meet you. I have unresolved issues after caring for my Mother for the last year of her life. Due to the mental changes she had, I feel guilt over things she expressed to me.
Too much was left unsaid. Your help is really needed.
Thank you
I would love to one day have Theresa walked into a room that I was sitting and have a reading. I lost my only child Christopher 19 years ago and wish I knew that he was okay and that I was a good mom. those days I feel as though I wasn’t always there for him the way I should have been and this would not have happened had I been. I wish I could touch your beautiful face in my hands one more time. I Love you Son.
