Dorrett Lovell
Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist, PMHNP-BC
Welcome! I'm Dorrett McDonald-Lovell, a dedicated Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) based in the warm and welcoming community of Kissimmee, FL. With over two decades of rich experience in healthcare, my journey has been driven by a passion for enhancing the wellbeing of my patients and their families.
My expertise lies in understanding and addressing your mental health needs with empathy and professionalism. I've spent significant time honing my skills, practicing as a PMHNP across all ages. My approach is patient-centered, ensuring that you receive personalized care tailored to your unique situation.
I believe in the power of communication and collaboration. Whether it's working with other healthcare professionals or educating patients and their loved ones about mental health, I'm committed to making sure you feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.
My educational background includes a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University and a Bachelor's from Long Island University School of Nursing. I'm proud to be recognized by esteemed societies such as The National Society of Leadership and Success, Golden Key International Honor Society, and Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing for my commitment to excellence.
As a lifelong learner, I continuously update my knowledge to provide you with the best care possible. I maintain active memberships with professional associations like the American Nursing Association to stay at the forefront of nursing practice.
Outside the clinic, I'm an active participant in community service initiatives like Second Harvest Food Bank because giving back is at the heart of what I do.
If you're looking for compassionate, comprehensive psychiatric care that puts you first, let's connect. Your mental health journey is important to me, and together we can work towards achieving balance and peace in your life.

Amber Creamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Are you a woman that looks like they have it all together on the outside, but on the inside you feel like you are struggling to hold things together? You pride yourself on being able to do all the things- excel at your career, manage family responsibilities, maintain an active social calendar, and more- but you have lost sight of what you actually enjoy doing. Your life is far from what you envisioned and you are unsure of where to start to get things back on track.
Or maybe you are a woman who experienced something that has been hard to leave in the past. You’ve been trying to hold onto moments of normalcy because it allows you to downplay what happened. In order to feel safe you have sought out control and predictability in your life and relationships. You are afraid of what will happen if you “open the door” to the past although you desperately want to live a life that isn’t shaped by what you have experienced, but you don’t know where to start.
Whether you are dealing with struggles with anxiety, perfectionism, or trauma, I will be with you every step of the way. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where every woman I work with can feel seen, heard, and valued. I will utilize my knowledge, training, and expertise to help you develop the necessary comping skills and accomplish your goals. Through our work together I want to help you learn to live your life more authentically, learn to quiet your inner critic, and live your life boldly without second guessing so you can cultivate a life you love.

Dr. Kahina Beasley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Let’s work together on finding solutions for your life. When we run into challenges, it can be so tough to figure out the best plan to move forward. Sometimes we just need that extra boost or coping strategy to get where we want to be. Through therapy, I provide my clients with tools to cope effectively when adjusting to these life hurdles or changes. I help you find strengths you may not realize you have, by tapping into what you may be unable to see during your time of stress, depression, or anxiety. Together, we'll collaborate to determine what steps would work best for you to come out of your life transition feeling empowered and psychologically healthy. My therapy model is short-term and solutions-focused, aimed at reaching steps toward your goals as soon as possible to begin finally feeling like your best self again.
Separate from therapy, I also specialize in psychological assessments for children and adults. Testing is typically for school-based concerns, such as learning disabilities, behavior challenges, ADHD, or gifted eligibility. My reports help as needed for clients to receive accommodations in class/standardized exams and meet their life goals.
