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.”

Dear Theresa,
Let me start off by introducing my self my name is Teagan Biber from Topeka, Ks. I herd that you were coming here in the near future. And I know it may seem alot to ask but I think it would be really cool if maybe just for a couple minutes or so you could read Haley, Kyle, and Alwey Salmon. Who has recently lost ther 15yr old dayghter and a dear fiend of mine. Due to liver failure. It’s effected our community in so many ways. Us as a school at Shawnee Heights High school thought it would be a good idea. I know your busy and have lots to do, but it was worth a shot to ask.
Hi Theresa:
I watched your show for the first time yesterday 9/2/2013 and couldn’t take my eyes off the television for a good three hours that you were on. You have an amazing gift.
Blessings
Jeannie

HiTheresa! I just watched a “marathon” of your shows on TLC, and I am completely convinced that you can help my husband! We live in RI… if you can’t come to us, we will most definately find you! Hoping to hear from you in the very near future! My husband’s younger brother died unexpectedly on our anniversary and mother was diagnosed w/ cancer a couple of months prior to. As a result, my husband has been battling w/ his own demons re: substance and the demise of his family unit. Can you help him to connect w/ his brother and receive the “life-long intervention” that his brother intended to facilitate?
