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 lost my father 54 years ago. I went into a shell for 6 years trying to blame myself for his death. Recently I saw a man out of the corner of my eye walk thru the dining room twice. My father always were a grey checked design suit which is exactly what I saw this image I saw in the dining room. I lost my mother in 1999. She has visited me twice where I have seen a black outline of her either floating above me or standing next to my bed. My brother (we live together) has seen my mother also. Now a light keeps coming on in the living room which we rarely turn on. I would love to have a reading from you. I’ll fly up to your location in a heartbeat if I can get a reading from you.

I talk to my dad all the time even though he passed years and years ago. Hoping to hear from him. I had to make many decision just before he died, Im hoping I made the decisions he would of made. I trust him and hoping for his guidance.
