The USB-C port is for data only so you need a USB 3.0 or USB-C port replicator with DisplayLink that will turn a usb connection into video. You have an HDMI port which would give you one external monitor and then you can get 2 more from a USB port replicator. There is no "docking station" as that term means a device that provides power to the laptop through its own connection and HP has not put docking connectors on consumer laptops in many years. Your USB-C port will not power the laptop so you will need to use the provided AC adapter. 

 

Port replicator like this:
