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.”

My mother is turning 79 this year, we lost our dad 24 yrs ago this memorial wkend. Lately she has been telling me she is seeing dad at night holding a baby. he looks to be around 30 yrs old to her. She is also seeing what she calls “gray” people. also a little blonde girl, she doesn’t see her face, just from the back. The only time she has scared is one night she saw something that looked “alien” to her, not human, she hit at it and said she hit something hard. any ideas?
Theresa, we tried a couple of months ago to set up for a private reading with you but as of yet have not hear anything. We watch you all the time and really think you are fantastic and I really, really want to sit with you. I’m sure it’s a wait but so much needed and wanted. I would really appreciate if you or your staff could please get in touch with us to set this up. Thanks.

I have an issue with a loved one who has passed and the rest I would like to know.
Dear Theresa, I have watched several of your show which left me in tears. You truly have a gift. I am wondering if you do readings over the phone? I was recently diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer and I am going through treatment. Over the last few years I have lost a couple close friends to cancer and two grandparents. I would like to ask you some questions regarding everything that is going on in my life. I realize because of your gift you are probably very busy. If you have time I would love to make arrangements for a reading. Thank you for your time. xo Jacque

You see I need help I need to know what happened to me when I was a child. It is affecting me now can not trust no one even till this day I still can not trust my husband of 14 years thinking he is going to hurt me. I need to know what happened so I can get over it and move on with my life I am not looking for fame or to be on T.V If you can help me to move on and help me to forgive those who hurt me that will be the greatest gift that anyone would ever give to me you would help me start to live As a child my life ended the day I was hurt.
