In this episode of The Therapy Show, I'm thrilled to chat with Dr. Tobin Richardson, a fellow continuing education creator and the founder of Save the Therapist. We dive into how Tobin combined his passion for narrative podcasting and his background in counselor education to create a unique, story-driven CE platform for therapists. He shares the behind-the-scenes of launching CE courses that actually engage and inspire, why he believes continuing education needs a serious upgrade, and how he's offering these courses completely free thanks to his creative business model.

We also get real about the challenges of building something meaningful, how to market CE content without burning out, and what it's like to cover nuanced, sometimes controversial topics with honesty and integrity. If you've ever thought about creating your own CE content or just want to hear how another therapist is innovating in the field, this episode is for you.

Tune in and get inspired by Tobin's journey and maybe even find your next favorite CE podcast.

Tobin Richardson, EdD, NCC, is a counselor educator with a decade of experience building and delivering innovative educational resources to therapists in both community mental health and large VC-backed provider organizations. Since launching in early 2025, his NPR-style CE platform Save the Therapist has garnered over 4,000 therapists registrants with over 7,000 course completions.
