Surrogate Partner Therapy (SPT), also sometimes referred to as sexual surrogacy, was first introduced by sex researchers, Masters and Johnson. They introduced the concept of sexual surrogacy to support un-partnered individuals to work towards sexual goals with another person in a controlled and supportive environment.
A Certified Sex Therapist trained in SPT has the ability to refer a client to a partner surrogate when the sexual goals of the talk therapy have been met and the client wants to test out the new skills with another person to build sexual confidence in a structured and supportive environment. Structured goals such as learning to date, hug, kiss, be naked, learning to touch and be touched in pleasurable ways (that may or may not include penetration/intercourse) are decided between the sex therapist, the client and the surrogate.
Alon Goshen is a surrogate in the second largest SPT clinic in the world. He has a Masters Degree in Psychology, is trained in massage therapy and tantric sex, and is a sensual couples Bachata dance instructor. Alon also owns a private clinic in Israel where he helps women learn the skills to achieve high levels of sexual pleasure for themselves, or to share with others.
