Introduction: As the concept of music therapy has entered China, local music therapy has been tapped. Nowadays, although the development of music therapy in China has been quite fruitful. However, local music therapy concepts are increasingly colliding with Western music therapies. Some problems in the research have begun to emerge. This study attempts to analyze the potential reasons behind the problems. Method: To review the current state of development of music therapy in China and to summarize, compare and analyze some existing representative scholars' views. Results: In China, there are differences between indigenous music therapy concepts and Western music therapy concepts. These researchers have questioned the credibility of each other's research and the validity of their research methods. Discussion: The conflict between different theories and different fields of research thinking has led to mutual doubts about the credibility of research findings. The problem arises because of the cognitive paradigm barriers that exist when researchers from different fields conduct cross-disciplinary research. The difficulty in describing the "unexpressed premises" of the research and the multiplicity of levels of music therapy research are the main reasons for this. Underlying the reasons for this is a problem with the scientific methodology of music therapy. The problem is the unification of rationalism and empiricism.
