About Court
Counseling Institute
25 court-approved programs. 21+ languages. Trusted across the U.S., Canada, and Australia.
It Started With One Program. It Became Something Bigger.
We started in 2008 as The Anger Managers, founded by Jessica Echeverri. Eighteen years of courts, probation officers, attorneys and employers across three countries have sent us their clients.
OUR FOUNDER
Guided by experience. Powered by purpose.
She built the service she couldn't find for her own clients.
Jessica Echeverri is a MSW, PhD(c), psychotherapist and former Child and Youth Worker. She kept running into the same problem: long waitlists, high costs, and offices people felt judged in.
What began as a one-woman practice out of the back of her car now serves tens of thousands of clients, families, lawyers, employers and courts across three countries.
OUR JOURNEY
From One Practice to Court Programs Across Three Countries
The beginning
Founded by Jessica Echeverri, The Anger Managers began with a simple goal: to make counseling more accessible. After seeing the challenges of long waitlists, high costs, and uncomfortable settings, Jessica created a more practical and supportive alternative.
Expanding support
As more people turned to us for support, we expanded our programs to include domestic violence intervention and PAR alternatives, parenting and co-parenting, substance use, sexual offenses, driving offenses, and specialty programs—all designed to be practical, accessible, and easier to complete.
A trusted partner to courts
By this point, we had earned the trust of courts, probation officers, attorneys, and legal professionals across Canada, building a strong reputation for accountability, professionalism, and reliable support.
Crossing borders
As demand for compassionate, court-approved counseling grew beyond Canada, we expanded into the United States, bringing the same accessible, trauma-aware approach to more clients and communities.
A new name, the same mission
We became Court Counseling Institute to reflect the full range of programs and support we now provide. Our name evolved, but our commitment to compassionate care, accountability, and meaningful change remained the same.
25 Programs, 21+ Languages, Clients Worldwide
Today, we serve clients worldwide, with a strong presence across the United States, Canada, and Australia. Our programs are online, affordable, and available in multiple languages. Whether you’re here by court order, referral, or personal choice, we’ll help guide you through the process.
OUR MISSION
Meet the requirements. Respect the person.
We provide court-approved counseling and psychoeducational programs across the U.S., Canada, and Australia that are accessible, trauma-aware, and designed around legal and workplace needs.
Whether someone comes through a court order, professional referral, or personal choice, we deliver every program with clarity, professionalism, and respect for the person behind the paperwork.
OUR VISION
A referral should be a beginning, not an ending.
We believe everyone deserves support without judgment, fear, or unnecessary barriers. Being referred to a program should be more than completing a requirement, it should be an opportunity to understand, grow, and move forward.
Our vision is for every person to feel respected, supported, and capable of meaningful change, regardless of what brought them to us.
OUR CORE VALUES
What Guides Everything We Do
Compassion
We meet every person with respect and without judgment, regardless of what brought them to Court Counseling Institute.
Integrity
We give you clear, honest guidance about your options, even when a less expensive program works or we’re not the right provider.
Client-Centered Care
Every situation is different. We consider the individual, their circumstances, and their requirements rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
Accessibility
Our programs are online, flexible, and available in 21 languages, helping remove barriers to getting the support people need.
Accountability
Completion means the work was completed. Our programs and documentation reflect real participation, professional standards, and genuine effort.
Transformation
We want people to leave with more than completed paperwork. The goal is greater understanding, better choices, and meaningful change moving forward.
