This isn't something the public defender would assist you with.
You are on the right track though- all you need to do is petition the court and ask for the change. The worst they can say is no. You might also talk with your PO about it just to see how realistic the idea is. It would be extremely helpful if you had the PO's recommendation for the change. It might even be possible that the PO could handle the entire thing, leaving it all very simple for you.
