Podcast Episode: About Surrogate Partner Therapy with Andre Lazarus
The Raw Intimacy Podcast | Episode with André Lazarus
What does it actually look like when someone learns about intimacy through lived experience?
In this episode, I sit down with my fellow Virgin Island expert André Lazarus — surrogate partner — to pull back the curtain on one of the most eyebrow-raising and profound modalities in sex education.
We explore what surrogate partner therapy really is, how it works, and why it can be so transformative for people who want to learn about intimacy through real-life experience.
We talk about the triadic model — the client, the surrogate partner, and the therapist working together — and what that container actually holds. André shares how sessions unfold, the kinds of trajectories this work can open up, and what drew him personally to this path. It's a rare, honest look at a modality that deserves so much more understanding.
🎧 Listen in. Stay curious.
