About My Work

I have extensive experience as
an Intimacy Guide, Surrogate Partner and Sacred Intimate

 

I truly believe that the more we unleash, embrace, and sit in our full sexual power, the more that power resonates through the rest of our lives.  My unique style of services encompasses many facets of the human condition.  My work incorporates embodied empathy, intimate touch, BDSM, altered states of consciousness and spirituality to guide you on a journey of sexual awakening.

I am a Certified Intimacy, Sex and Relationship Guide, Certified Surrogate Partner, Sacred Intimate, and featured TV Expert, with 10 years of experience helping individuals and couples discover their intimate and erotic power. As a multisexual being experienced in Consensual Non-Monogamous dynamics, my unique approach to sexuality, sensuality and the bond people share make me a thought leader and knowledgeable practitioner speaking on multiple podcasts and running retreats/workshops around the world.

I specialize in erotic desire, sexless relationships, sexual trauma healing, erectile concerns, rapid ejaculation, BDSM, consensual non-monogamy, and more. 

This work is primarily based on teaching of the International Professional Surrogacy Association and Somatica® Sex and Intimacy Method, experiential and somatic approaches to sexuality. The theory behind these methods is that sexual energy manifests in your body, not in your mind, so working through sexual blocks should be approached through hands-on support.

In the Somatica® Method, clients are engaged in real-time interactions while receiving support, guidance, and feedback so that they can have fulfilling and connected sex and relationships. As a lifelong student, I am constantly learning, progressing through various curriculums, and expanding my own perceptions on sexuality, intimacy and how we connect in this world. I show up with curiosity for all that this work and life has to offer.

A few of my qualificationsfor this work are:

 

  • Certified Somatica® Sex, Intimacy & Relationship Coach
  • Certified Surrogate Partner through the International Professional Surrogate Association
  • Featured Expert on UK's Channel 4 Award-winning show Virgin Island
  • Masters of Sciences, Masters of Arts, Bachelors of Arts

My Story

 


Growing up, I experienced sex differently from my friends, community, and the societal messaging that teaches us there are set rules and restrictions to sex, intimacy, and relationships.

I'm Andre Lazarus and
I'm a Somatic Intimacy Guide

At 18 years old, I had the unfortunate journey of my first sexual experience being traumatic. I was raped. Little did I know how impactful that trauma would be in shaping my life and the person I would become in this world for the better.

I’ve always felt called to healing work; serving others is my passion. My next adventure would bring me to serve my country as a Marine Corps Officer, deploying to war. During my service, I married my first true love, but realized monogamy was something expected by society and not my heart. After our divorce, I felt like a failure as a husband but could feel a big shift growing inside of me. It was after this life-changing moment that I started my new chapter in San Francisco and built a new life.

From several intimate interactions, I learned that I had a powerful gift to connect with people in a sexual space, helping to open-up sexual desires, removing shame around sexual exploration, and healing old wounds around abuse and sexual trauma. Through this transformative work I began to step into my full sexual power, which was more freeing than I could have ever imagined. I came out as multisexual. While it took me many years to realize my sexuality, the moment I did, I was able to fully embrace my power.

These days, I am empowered to bring my passion for sex and journey of self-discovery and transformation to your highest growth. This calling allows me to show up in service to your process and to guide you on your own journey of sexual embodiment. I am someone who loves connecting with sexual energy, other beings and love itself. To me, deep intimacy is the path to awakening our most powerful Self, and I’m excited to show you how to tap into this well of infinite energy!
