I am trying to find a docking station that works with the type of laptop I have. Will make working off the laptop a lot easier as I have 2 monitors waiting to be used. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

This is the port you have that would be best for a dock:
USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C (supports data transfer, power delivery, HP Sleep & Charge; left side)
This is the little oval shaped port. It can power the laptop but does not carry a native video signal. So you need a DisplayLink USB-C dock. They tend to be a little expensive but can support multiple external monitors. There is a chip inside the dock that converts a regular USB data type connection to external video. You cannot use a Thunderbolt dock as your port is not Thunderbolt. You can however use one that charges the laptop.
