"Therapist" thematisiert die Rolle einer Frau in einer "one-way"-Beziehung, in der sie die ganze Arbeit auf sich nimmt, nichts zurückbekommt und schließlich die Entscheidung trifft, dass es genug ist.
Das Video, das unter der Regie von Chloe Victoria Hughes entstanden ist, zeigt Mae in vertrauten Szenarien, wie sie ihren Mann, der sie ständig bedrückt, körperlich hochhalten und unterstützen muss.
Mae erklärt ihre Inspiration im Hinblick auf den Track:
"I wrote 'Therapist' with Caroline Ailin and David Pramik a couple of months ago now. I feel like a lot of the time, a 'good' girlfriend is measured in how many chances they give, and how much they can endure mentally before their partner decides to treat them right. That is not it! We are not here to teach men how to behave, we are not their mothers, or their therapists, and we shouldn't have to take on that pressure! Especially when we received nothing in return. In this particular song, it was about a situation where I really wanted to make it work but realised that this person did not need a relationship, and that I couldn't give him what he needed no matter how hard I tried."
