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.”

My mom went missing in Mexico on October 22nd 2007. I need to tell her I’m sorry or I’ll never be able to be ok. I feel like you can help me. My mother was my everything,she was my life and I dreaded the day age would be gone as early as a young child. The way it happend is too much to bare. If you can help I would be so honored and eternally grateful.
Hello,
Saw the show, have issues. Need to chat.
Would like to get on your waiting list for a private or group reading.
Please contact me. Thank you for your time.
Hello Theresa,
Would like to make an appoitment for a reading with you…i know it might be over a year wait. please have you staff contact me through e-mail with date…charge, etc.
thanks much! CHOW
I would like to book a reading…..I am in Michigan, but would come to you. Do you make trips around the country yourself? Maybe you will with the success of the show.It was amazing……I did get your number, but thought I would try this first.Thanks
Thought provoking show. Wondering what she means by “they are at peace” Are they in heaven? Where are these souls? What’s on the other side? Do they see Jesus? Would love to hear what her thoughts are on that. My step dad took his own life 8 years ago and I hope he’s in heaven, but my Christian beliefs tell me otherwise.
Please add me to the appt. list..
Would love to have someone contcat me to set up a reading. Thank you!!
I watched your show for the first time last night and was truly impressed. I am sure it is not easy for you to walk up to strangers not knowing how they will respond, but seeing their reactions to your special gift was amazing.I lost my Mom when I was 2 yrs. old. I have struggled with this all my life. I have had an empty void in my life for several years and has I get older and see my children grow up it becomes bigger. I live no where close to you, but I know were you closer you would have a huge impact on myself and friends with closure in our lives.
Theresa,
I know you get thousands of emails but I have been suffering for over 10 years. I have become depressed and have high anxiety. My mother, father, and recently by brother passed. I can’t tell you how much if would help if I knew they were all together. Can you help me please? I went to a group but my mother never came through after 911. I would have thought as strong as she is she would have pushed to the front. Can you please help me? I live in California so it would not be easy for me to come and see you. I love your personality and the way you help all and you are not in it just for the money. I admire that greatly.
iam curious iam struggling with money and we been waiting for my wifes disability check to start comming in i wanna know if you see it comming in anytime soon
Hi Theresa,
My brother passed many years ago. We were extremely close. Prior to his death I told him that I was really going to miss him and if it were possible for him to visit me after he passed then he should because I would LOVE it! He said he would try. Right after his death I received many signs from him. I didn’t believe it at first and thought my grief was clouding my logic. But after a while I knew it could not be a coincidence and I believed. Then, I became concerned that my devastation was keeping him from being where he needed to be. I let him know I was ok and that it was ok for him to do whatever he needed to do. Even though I asked for signs after that, I didn’t experience anything for 14 years. That changed last year, at my wedding. There were some absolutely unmistakeable signs from him. Even nonbelievers changed their mind. I wonder if he is trying to tell me something. If you think so, please let me know. Thanks!!!
I think what you are doing is wonderful.
I can only hope I am fortunate enough to have a reading by you one day. My daughter, my mother, my 3 sisters are all lined up to hear the blessings you are able to share from the other side and would love to have readings also. God Bless you. Please contact me if this is how you are obtaining new appointments, I dont care how long I have to wait. Blesings
Theresa,
If you’re reading this and setting up appointments via these email addresses, please add me to the list.
Thanks!
Lori

Hi Theresa , i lost my only brother on september 11 in the wtc attacks…..It was so sudden, tragic, unexpected and there are soooooooooo many unanswered questions that have risen since then and because of it….I have never reached out to any one about this before but after seeing ur show u made me a believer and i need to see u PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me out to try to find some long overdue closure that can allow me to start healing as ten years later im just as hurt and confused as i was on 9/11…my email is deeblue1780@gmail.com….PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPPP MEEEEEEE!!!
My father passed away in 2008 from complications with surgery. My mother passed away this year from breast cancer and my brother also passed this year from a rare type of cancer. I miss them all so much and can’t stop thinking of them. I just wish i could know that they’re ok. Also if they think my sisters and I did a good job taking care of them while they were passing on. I have regrets on things I wish I could of said to them or done for them. I’m sad all the time. Your show gives me hope that I can find you or someone like you to talk to about this and have some sort of contact with them again.

Wow ! Love your show !! I will continue to watch !
Well…I thought Teresa was great! I was just wondering if she knows what it means when I dream of people that have past and in the dream they are not as I last saw them…they have aged as in real time. weird but true. Any thoughts?
