If a Philadelphia judge, prosecutor, or probation officer has told you to complete anger management, you are not looking for a lecture hall or a crowded group video call. You're looking for something the court will respect, that fits around work and family, and that you can actually start this week. That is exactly what we built.

New Jersey Anger Management Group is an attorney-founded program directed by a former criminal defense lawyer with more than fifteen years inside courtrooms — from municipal benches to state and federal court. We've spent that time learning what judges and prosecutors are really listening for, and we deliver our program live and one-on-one to Philadelphia clients by secure telehealth. No group. No pre-recorded modules you half-watch. A real practitioner, a real conversation, every session.

Philadelphia matters route through the First Judicial District of Pennsylvania — the Philadelphia Municipal Court for many lower-level charges and the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County for others. We have worked with court-referred clients across the city for over a decade, and we'll meet you wherever your case sits.

Start today: Text ENROLL to (201) 205-3201. Tell us what your order says, and we'll confirm the requirement, schedule your first live session, and send written enrollment confirmation — usually within hours.
How diversion works here

ARD, probation, and the orders that bring people to us


Pennsylvania's primary pretrial diversion program is Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD). For eligible first-time matters, ARD lets you complete a set of conditions — which frequently include education or counseling such as anger management — and, on successful completion, can lead to dismissal of the charges and eligibility to pursue expungement. The details and eligibility are decided by the District Attorney's Office and the court, and your attorney is your best guide to whether ARD is on the table.

Anger management also shows up as a condition of probation, as part of a negotiated resolution, in family court and custody matters, and sometimes in protection-from-abuse contexts. In each of these, what the court ultimately wants to see is follow-through: that you took the requirement seriously and finished it with a provider that documents the work. We give you that documentation in the form of a formal Completion Letter.

One honest note: some protection-from-abuse and domestic-violence dispositions call for a state-approved batterers' intervention program, which is a distinct curriculum from anger management. If you're not certain which your case requires, confirm with your attorney or the court first — we'll happily talk it through with you before you enroll.

Simple, structured, fast to start

How the program works


1

Reach out

Text ENROLL to (201) 205-3201 or call us. We confirm what your Philadelphia matter requires — number of sessions, deadline, and the format the court expects.

2

Brief intake

A short, confidential intake establishes your history and goals. There is no waitlist and no group to join — your schedule is built around you.

3

Live one-on-one sessions

You meet privately with a practitioner by secure video. Real conversation, real feedback — the opposite of clicking through a pre-recorded module.

4

Completion Letter

On finishing, you receive a formal Completion Letter on our letterhead, documenting your attendance and engagement for the court or your attorney.

Why families choose us

What makes this different from a $20 click-through course


Founded by a lawyer

The program was designed by an attorney who has stood next to clients in front of Pennsylvania-style benches for years. That perspective shapes how we document your work for the court.

Truly one-on-one

You're never dropped into a group video or handed a video playlist. Every session is a private conversation with a practitioner who adapts to your situation.

Behavioral substance, not box-checking

We teach real, evidence-based skills — recognizing triggers, interrupting escalation, and responding instead of reacting — so the work holds up long after the case closes.

Bilingual by design

English and Spanish throughout, including your Completion Letter, so language is never a barrier to finishing.

Remote and immediate

Attend from anywhere in Philadelphia. No commute, no waiting room, no months-long waitlist.

A letter the court can read

You finish with a clear Completion Letter on our letterhead — the document your attorney and the judge actually want to see.

An important distinction

Anger management is not batterers' intervention


This distinction matters, so we say it plainly: we provide anger management, and only anger management. Anger management teaches a person to recognize and regulate their own anger before it drives a harmful response. A batterers' intervention program (BIP) is a separate, longer, state-regulated curriculum focused on power, control, and accountability in intimate-partner abuse.

Courts sometimes use the terms loosely, but they are not interchangeable, and enrolling in the wrong one can cost you time. If your Philadelphia matter involves a protection-from-abuse order or a domestic-violence charge, ask your attorney precisely which program is required. If it's anger management, we're ready. If it's a BIP, we'll tell you so rather than take an enrollment we can't stand behind.

From the docket

How it has played out in Philadelphia courts


A Center City disorderly-conduct matter

A first-time defendant facing ARD needed anger management completed on a tight timeline before a review date. We confirmed the requirement, scheduled live sessions around a demanding work week, and delivered the Completion Letter ahead of the hearing.

A custody dispute in Common Pleas

A parent was directed to complete anger management as part of a custody arrangement. One-on-one sessions let us address the specific co-parenting flashpoints, and the documented completion supported the parent's standing before the court.

A Spanish-speaking client in South Philly

A client more comfortable in Spanish had stalled with an English-only provider. We ran the full program in Spanish, including the Completion Letter, and the matter moved forward without a language barrier.

A probation condition after a workplace incident

Following a workplace altercation, a client needed to satisfy a probation condition. We focused on workplace de-escalation skills and provided clean documentation for the supervising officer.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked questions


I live in Philadelphia — which court is handling my anger-management requirement?
Most Philadelphia matters run through the First Judicial District of Pennsylvania: the Philadelphia Municipal Court for many lower-level charges and the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County for others. Your order or your attorney will tell you which. Either way, our program is delivered the same — live, one-on-one, by secure video — and you can text ENROLL to (201) 205-3201 and we'll help you confirm.
Will the court accept an online, one-on-one program?
In our experience courts and probation officers are concerned with two things: that the provider is legitimate and that you actually complete the work. Our sessions are live and one-on-one with a real practitioner, and you finish with a formal Completion Letter on our letterhead documenting your attendance. We always recommend confirming format with your attorney or the supervising officer, and we are glad to speak with them directly.
How long is the program?
Length depends on what your order requires — many specify a set number of sessions or hours. Once we know your requirement we map it to a schedule, often within a week of your first message.
Do you offer sessions in Spanish?
Yes. Every part of the program — intake, sessions, and your Completion Letter — is available in English or Spanish.
Is this the same as a batterers' intervention or domestic-violence program?
No. We provide anger management only. Some matters require a separate, state-specific batterers' intervention program, which is a different curriculum. If you are unsure which your case needs, check with your attorney or the court before enrolling and we'll help you confirm.
What does it cost?
We offer a 15% discount when you pay in full, or a simple 50/50 split. We don't bill insurance, which keeps your enrollment fast and uncomplicated. Text ENROLL to (201) 205-3201 for your exact tuition once we confirm your court's requirement.
