Why Palmer Ranch Families Choose Therapy SRQ
Palmer Ranch is one of Sarasota’s most desirable master-planned communities, stretching between Clark Road and US-41 south of downtown. Known for its top-rated schools, gated neighborhoods, parks, and family-oriented lifestyle, Palmer Ranch attracts families who value education and community. The Sarasota County Schools serving the area — including Pine View School for the Gifted — maintain high academic standards that can bring both opportunity and pressure for young people.
Even in communities with strong support systems, children and teens can struggle with anxiety, depression, social difficulties, academic pressure, behavioral challenges, and the emotional impacts of family transitions. In high-achieving environments, these struggles can be compounded by perfectionism, comparison, and reluctance to seek help.
Christine Murawski specializes in working with young people and understands the developmental and social context they navigate daily. With certification in Play Therapy for younger children and training in CBT, behavioral modification, and family therapy, she provides treatment tailored to each child’s age, needs, and circumstances.
