Therapy is the debut studio album by German singer Zoe Wees. It was announced in August 2023 released on 3 November 2023.[1] About the album, Wees said, "This album is for everyone who is struggling with depression, anxiety, and breakups. But I also wrote this album for myself and it helped me grow a lot. The oldest song is 4 years old and looking back it's really inspiring to me cause I've been growing so much, I'm very proud of myself."[2]

The EP includes three songs from Wees' debut extended play Golden Wings; "Control", "Girls Like Us" and "Hold Me Like You Used To".

Rolling Stone Germany| [3]

Sabrina Shahryar from Crucial Rhythm said "Zoe has an incredibly unique voice and has a way of expressing herself through her heartfelt lyrics. The rhythm of each song is matched perfectly with the lyrics. This album is worth the wait and fans will love it."[2]

Ralf Niemczyk from Rolling Stone Germany said the album "contains cleverly produced soul-pop-R&B" song and "her songs are reminiscent of Billie Eilish".[3]

Vincent Lane from The Garnette Report said "The record... is a full-on, heart-and-soul account of Zoe who is armed with nothing but honesty as she re-tells life growing up with anxiety, health conditions, growing up in a single-parent home, and later dealing with everything the music industry and social media has to throw at her."[4]

Mo Pop said "Wees impresses with Therapy with its deep lyrics and her powerful voice. It invites listeners on an emotional journey and encourages them to think about themselves and their own lives."[5]

Yannik Gölz from laut.de said "Zoe has talent, volume, strength, expression, she is in a sense the complete package. Nevertheless, their debut Therapy is one of the most boring albums of the year."[6]
