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.”

Theresa and/or John,
I am in exactly! The same position.
2 Dad’s diagnosed with the same cancer 3 weeks apart.
They died 2 1/2 months apart.
I am so unsure of my Dad’s peace. I have not felt his presence or anything that can give me an ounce of assurance.
I am heart-sick.
I would give anything for even a hint.

Teresa I have always seen people in my room at night I have had dreams about god and jesus the pearly gates I have also had such horrific night terrors one could imagine I often feel presences of things or people around me and I hear people calling my name is there any help or advice to help me out one such dream was about an indian kneeling beside my bed in war paint his bow and arrows are in a down ward position ready to pray for a battle
I lost my husband Peter, Nov. 22, 2013 – he slipped away in his sleep from severe dementia/Alzheimer’s Disease. I wasn’t there to hold his hand when he went to the other side. I need closure and need to know if he is alright. Do you ever do phone readings? I am not able to drive any distance due to Mascular Degeneration. If you can call, my number is 315 895 7612.
Help, Ann
I’m Merissa, and my best friend tragically passed when he was walking on the side of the road, he was hit by a car and died instantly. I never got to say goodbye, I didn’t text him back that day, and I never told him I loved him. I can’t feel him.. I’m scared he has given up on me because everyone he knew is saying I used him and that what I felt for him wasn’t real. I need to know that he still loves me and believes in me, and that he is here with me. Please help me. I don’t think I can handle this much longer. I’m only 14.
I don’t know if you have ever done this before but my husband is afraid to die because he is not a believer in the here after. We were told yesterday that his cancer has returned and he has 2 1/2 to maybe 3 years to live. I think if you could connect with whoever is going to come for him he would have some relief.
If you can’t read my husband maybe you could tell me if there are any real mediums in Omaha, NE. I don’t think my husband has but about a year. Thank you and you are looking great
My husband and I were watching your show on 4/4/14 and your show was about a man that didn’t think there was a here after. After talking to you he life changed. I hope it help my husband
Hello my name is ashley . I am from laurel, ms.
I am wondering if I could get an appointment reading for my mom
Because in 2010 my niece was murdered at the age 2 and my mom hadn’t been the same since. It was so bad she put herself in pine let to get help . It help some but not much . She has moved completely out of town where my niece lived and hardly ever comes down to see me and my dad. I really miss my mom the way she used to be . This reading would help her with closure and let her be happy again in her life. So please think about us when you gave a chance and give me an email back whenever you can. Thanks oh p.s. I watch your show all the time , I think your husband is halarious !!! You can tell him I said that !!!lol!!!
