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.”

Hi Teressa. I am from South Africa and watch your show every opportunity I get. I lost my mom and sister in the same year, being 2012. I would like to know if my mom is ok as I keep feeling guilty and not at peace with her being gone. I miss her so much. I would like to know if my mom blames me for her death or does she know I did all I could. Also if she is with my late sister and late dad. one last thing, is my mom watching over me and my step dad? I really miss her so much and need her to know I’m so sorry and wish she were still here with me.
Regards
Louise

Hi Teresa,
I can’t even begin to tell you what it would mean to me to meet you! There are many that have passed in my life that I’d like to make sure are ok! Everyone from my grandparents to my father and brother most recently! I miss them and I find myself not able to sleep nights out on my deck trying to figure out which star to look at and talk to. I need your help so I can finally feel peace for myself. I didn’t get to really know my Dad (father) or his parents my grandparents. I stayed away from my fathers side of the family because I always felt like I was being put in the middle of a family dispute. I have reconnected with them recently and realize how much they love me. My brother passed away Aug of 2010 horrific car accident but not sure why? What caused it? I want to know if they can hear me when I talk to them? Please help me. Oh and my favorite cousin Michelle was murdered by her husband. I think of them all so often that its almost distracting to do anything else! I need your help.. My problem is I lost my job due to back issues so I’m broke and have no money to get to Long Island. I live in Cedar Rapids, Ia
Thank you,
Dana Blauer
hi i love watching ur show and i would like to get a reading if i could if u could get back with me that would be great thank u
I really Love your Show and would love to get a reading. I lost my husband 2 in a half yrs ago suddenly and my world has been turned upside down since. He died of sudden cardiac arrest. I loved this man so much and never knew anything was wrong with his heart and no one else did either but sort of feel like he did and just didn’t tell anyone. He left me with so much to take care of that was undone and I have been suffering every since. But I need him to know how much I really loved him and miss him and if he is with me. I never got to say goodbye. I went to bed the night before angry at him and was awakened by his fall to death in the kitchen of our home. So much was left unsaid and done and I just need answers.
I would love to have a reading with you I lost my husband of 25 years and I feel he left me so fast and I just need to know that he is ok, I took care of him for 5 years before he died and we had some very hard days.. but when he died we was having a really good day and than he died and I just keep wonding why I did love him so much and I try to talk to him but he never send me any messages I would just love to know if he is ok and if you could get though and let me know that I did the right things and I went though with his wishes we never really talk about death and I hope I did everything thing that he wanted me to do .

Hi Teresa,
watching your show has been very healing for me and It is so amazing and comforting to watch you heal so many people. I learn something new every time I see your show and when I am having a hard day like today just by watching you helping people makes me feel so much better. Thank you Teresa for sharing your gift with the world and also making us laugh. I just watched the Hot Dog Chicago episode. My life in 2005 fell apart and my world crumbled and I was completely turned upside down. I suffered a severe break down after learning my dad was ill I was engulfed with overwhelming anxiety and guilt about my dads situation and not being at home at the time. I ended up having to leave my job which I worked very hard for and loved very much and the beautiful place I was living and lost most of my friends because of the break down and I moved back home. My father has passed and I am so thankful I was here to see him off and I know things happened for a reason. During my break down I had to deal with the spiritual world in a horrible and also a good way. It opened the door to things I did not even know were there or existed and learned that I had been suffering major guilt that I held for most of my life about a situation after losing a friend when I was 10. I am back working were I have to interact with people every day and also help people which in return is healing me. I have been completely on my own since my breakdown with spirit guiding me and taking it day by day. If you see anything in my story I could use some help. Thank you again for all the work you do and sharing your life which has helped me and so many people. GOD BLESS, Matt
Hi Teresa, my name is Kassidy and I am 12 about to be 13 years old. The past couple of years I have had close family members pass on. My grandmother is the main one that I haven’t been able to get off my mind since she has died. Since she has passed I have had issues with myself and they are pretty bad. The worst I have done is tried commit suicide. I really need someone to tell me thats she’s okay and help me feel better about her passing. I really need you!!!! Please contact me. I really need this!!! Please Teresa! I would absolutely love to meet you!! I love you!!! I would do anything to meet you!!! Please consider meeting me!! Contact me pleaseee!!!
Theresa, I have been trying to contact you for months. please et least let me know you have received my requests. thank you, Mary Perkins
