Hi hoffdeb; welcome!
What subjects are your degrees in? What would you be interested in giving up a large part of your life to study for the next few years? Why not a dissertation? People less smart than you*earn doctorates with dissertations every week.
Meanwhile, most doctorates without dissertations per se, excluding first-professional doctorates like the M.D., have dissertation-like major research papers, professional application papers, or similar.
