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 Therese…..Love you and your show….Would like to be put on your waiting list or come to one of your group readings…do you ever come to south NJ??
God has given you a beautiful gift and it’s wonderful to see how you use it to comfort so many people!
Dear Lisa:
My name is Margaret and my Brother Francis McClain was murdered on November 10, 2012, in Lovington, New Mexico. He and his friend, Leon Sanchez,were found murdered. The authorities have found the driver of the car and it has been luminalled and they said it lit up like a christmas tree. The driver will not tell, who else was with him or committed the murders. Please find it in your heart Lisa, to help my and my family with some comfort. My Mother is just so beside herself, and my sisters and I cannot even start to mention the hurt we feel on a daily basis. Please, and I know that you might not be able to contact me but we can pay for your fee of service, if only maybe we can know that our Brother and Son, “Mick” is okay and give us a sign.

Hi Theresa my grandma died in 2005 when I was about five or four years old. I really really want a reading. Im a very spiritual girl and I really do believe there is an afterlife. My grandma used to always wear this one perfume from Avon everyday. Sometimes I think I smell it in my room but I’m not always sure I it’s really her. I live is west Babylon on long island and I’ve been asking my mom if I could get a reading from you ever since I watched one of the episodes. What you do is a really special thing. You help people have closure and i really want to just know my grandma is with me. It would mean the world if I could come and get a reading from you.

Hi Theresa, I would definitely be interested in a reading. I lost my Mother in 2007 and just recently lost my older brother on February 21 of this year.
I was not able to see both of them before they past. My brother was good brother and a good friend, I really miss him! Thanks, Rick
I’m a 52 year old Mom. I lost my mother when I was only 13. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think of her. I’ve tried to communicate with her several times, but none of have been successful. My last trying, I was told that she has been trying to reach me but there is so much evil around me, she can’t come true. This is forever in my head and would love it if you could help me. I know you’re extremely busy, but when you get a chance it would be helpful and reliving if I could get a moment of your time. Thanks for listening or reading.
Looking to make an appointment with you – actually need to make an appointment for 3 of us.
I think you are totally amazing. I cannot watch an episode without crying. I know that it is a long wait – please let me know when i can schedule an appointment for three of us.
thank you Thresa
