Austin, Texas artist Boooka continues to carve out a lane built on emotional transparency with his latest single, “EffinMyTherapist.” Rather than relying on shock value, the record explores a quiet but complicated reality: what happens when therapy becomes the one place where emotions are allowed to exist without consequence.
Produced by krnik, mixed by Blanketboi and krnik, and directed by Ballwith7, the release is intentionally stripped back. The video opens with Boooka alone in a parking garage, standing still before delivering a single bar. The setting feels symbolic—open, empty, and detached—mirroring the internal isolation that often leads people to therapy in the first place.
Lyrically, Boooka contrasts romantic relationships that fade under emotional pressure with the steady presence of his therapist. While partners pull away when things get heavy, the therapist remains consistent, affirming, and emotionally available. That contrast becomes the emotional backbone of the song.
One of the standout lines captures this tension with understated honesty:
“Not a stripper but I’m finna tip her, you cannot forget her.”
The bar isn’t meant to sexualize—it highlights appreciation, gratitude, and the confusion that can come from emotional intimacy. Boooka acknowledges how rare it feels to be fully listened to, and how that experience can blur emotional boundaries.
The hook—“Dreams of fuckin’ my therapist”—is blunt by design. Psychologically, this feeling isn’t uncommon. Studies around emotional and erotic transference show that when therapy becomes a primary source of validation and safety, attachment can intensify. Boooka doesn’t frame this as fantasy or intention—he presents it as an honest thought that exists before it’s filtered.
What makes “EffinMyTherapist” resonate is Boooka’s self-awareness. He never glorifies the feeling or excuses it. Instead, he documents it, trusting the listener to understand the emotional context rather than judge the words at face value.
With this release, Boooka once again turns uncomfortable truth into art. “EffinMyTherapist” isn’t about crossing lines—it’s about recognizing how thin those lines can feel when emotional support is hard to find anywhere else.
