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.”

20 years ago the night my son was born, my fatherinlaw (who I never knew) came to me in a “dream”. I remember him with a flourecent yellow light behind him that lit up the room and the only thing he said was “hand me my grandson” and I watched him hold him and smile. This has haunted me for 20 years!
I met to type that i feel spirits approach me
Is it true can I feel a spies presence. I get chills.y
Hi Theresa. I am a big fan of your show and what you do. Every time I watch your show I always get teary because it reminds me of my mom that I lost. I was hoping you could do a reading with me to re ensure she is okay and not in pain anymore and that she is always there with me through my life time. Thank you.
Hello Theresa, I watched your show for the longest time and I am always touched and impressed by your skills in contacts with the loved ones on the other side. I never really thought I would feel the need for my own personal help request but here I am. I don’t understand why because I KNOW that in my heart I did all I could for my mother till she passed on in 2007, but apparently I must have something wrong with me that I just can’t stop the feelings that still insist on coming into my life causing me stress and anguish, I just have to “know someway, somehow”, that she is at peace and with the rest of our family and most of all I have to know in my heart that she is happy/content and she knows/feels that I did all that I could during that time in her life that I (one of three siblings and the “youngest”) had to step up and take charge of the situation that my two brothers were useless to. I don’t have any idea what a private short reading would even cost and if you would even consider coming to my home in Buffalo NY, but I thought I’d give it a try anyway, so I can possibly finally get that answer and peace of mind that if I don’t I think I will carry this burden to MY grave. So if you feel you can help me in some way, I’d really appreciate a reply, and I do understand if I don’t hear back, I’m sure your extremely booked and busy with more important clients and shows than me. Thank you so much for even taking the time to read my email and “God Bless”, your doing a most wonderful service for all of us that need your help. Please continue on helping everyone you come in contact with.

Hello theresa I’m a big fan of yours,
I have watched your show a lot and my dad lost his parents and he is really affected about it and he has a lot of questions to ask and we thought who better than you.
So we would appreciate it if you could let my dad talk to his parents!
