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 my name is Apri Leuck> My ex fiance passed away in september 2006> we had several breakups up until January 2006> I tried coming back but he got sick with cancer again and his mom moved in> they took the tumor out and put rods in his back. It was alot for him but i felt he would be okay. his mom stayed at his apt long enough to wait for him to get well and take over the bills for a few months. By march he was doing well again and working> I was still trying to come home> he met another girl who lived below him> he met her in march. THey married in May and he that sam summer got very very sick again> although the tumore was gone it had masticized into his lungs. He had a painful death in september that year and when he died.. although his family was fine with me and everything i was not allowed to come to the funeral bc they didnt want to upset or make the wife uncomfortable> SHe was pregnant> I have no bad feelings towards them as they just wanted to ensure they see their grandchild and were probably respecting her wishes> I am however upset with her> Im upset with the whole situation> I feel he was on the rebound and then knocked her up i dont know> I am NOT AT PEACE> i have nothing against her except that i was unable to say goodbye or pay my respects bc of her feelings. I guess i know shes a good person but im resentful and not at peace> i have dreams ^ 6 years later about looking for him and i cant find him. if i do find him i am not allowed to talk to him. I am not at rest. i am not really mad at anyone> i just am not at rest. i am very hurt. i am also very sad that he is gone. he has a daughter of whom his wife had in February 2007 > they married in may 2006 > exactly 9 months ..i really just want closure over the fact he is gone. i know he is with god and he did the best he could. im just very much hurt.
Hi Theresa, I have came across your show and have found it very entreating. I know you must be one busy woman, but I need some help. My husband and I have been together for quite some time. He has a hard time believing that his family member has moved on for the better. We are planning to come to New York for my birthday on 1-1-2013. To celebrate my birthday we would be leaving the last week of December of this year to fit in a little site seeing and shopping. During this time I think if my husband were to talk with you, even for a few minutes it would give him peace. Hope to hear from you, Sincerely yours, Patricia.

How do we find out if you do personal sessions by phone and how much they are? We are really wanting a reading. My brother passed away on 2/22/08, he took his own life. My mother is desperate to reach him, just to know he is happy and peaceful now. It’s been so difficult on her to loose her only son, Brian. Thanks so much for your time Theresa Caputo. My mom and I think you are wonderful.

Teresa, I need closure to my mom’s passing. I also lost my daughter at 23. It was very quick and there were things I needed to say. Ifeel she is trying to contact me. Her twin is still devistated. I would love to meet you about my husband. Is it possible to get a reading? I don’t have much money but have desperate questions.
Sincerely,
Marie
I would love to have a reading and would love to know the details of how to.
My older sister and I lost our mother last Dec 2011. It has been difficult for us because my sister live in the Bay Area and I live in Orange County, CA. We don’t talk as much anymore. In some ways, she hold herself responsible for my mom passing and I know it wasn’t her fault. If you have time, can you please meet with us or call us so we can both have some closure and answers so my sister and I can be close again.
I would love to make an appointment.. I want to be a believer…I am a huge fan of the show..
I have to many people that have passed I would love to make contact with..
