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.”

I was wondering if your gift can only be channeled through a face to face appointment or if you were able to excerise your gift through the phone. I live in Texas and it would be very difficult for me to travel to New York. If I were able to travel to New York how is the cost of appointments estimated? Thank you.

I was wondering if on your own time you could try to do a reading for Baby Ayla Reynolds from Maine. I am from the area and our police have been searching frantically. didnt know if you could see if someone on the other side would be able to help. she is only 2. you could easily read up on it online. Please, if she is no longer with us could you help find her remains? The entire state of Maine would thank you greatly. Thank you.
I really need your help please get in touch
Hi Theresa,
I am not going to go on an on about what has gone on with me and why I would love to have a reading by you. I know you have a ton of stories to read!! I just want to say that I think you are incredible and every episode brings me to many tears! I really hope that our paths will meet one day and you will be able to give me a bit of hope and closure for what I have been searching for the last 25 + years 🙂 For all that you do and all that you are God Bless you and thank you!!
Mel
Not sure I believe, but if I could get some amount of closure, I would be grateful. Please contact me.
Hi…I Just saw your show for the first time tonight Theresa. I was crying along with your clients. Unbelievable! I have seen John Edwards on tv and was blown away by him too. What a special gift you have. I would love to set up an appt to see if my father would come through. He was such an amazing man!!! I think about him and I miss him so much… I would love to know I will see him again someday and that he is still here… only in another form/energy. I almost feel guilty asking you for your time, you must have so little “you” time as it is! I hope you can find a way to relax and unwind. I would love to do an individual or a group setting… or a phone meeting…which ever would be sooner. Thank you so much!!! Robin

Theresa I understand that there are many people that would like to meet with you as much as I go. We all have so many unanswered questions of our loved one that have passed on. I hope you get to read this message and would love an opportunity to have some closure on my love one’s passing. I’m a young woman from a small town in Arizona (Maricopa) but willing to travel to your town. Hope to hear from you. Love Marlen Z.
I sent in a request to set up an appointment. I know the wait is long but I need her guidance. My life has gotten to the point I can’t get out of bed due to grief I don’t live close but will travel at anytime for an appointment.
