Is working with a financial/wealth planner a good idea? How to find/choose one?

Hello, I’m a female in 40s and I’m realizing that I had very little financial education. My ex-husband took care of finances and after divorce I found myself only able to get a credit card with a $2k limit. I have no debt aside from mortgage. I am considering finding a financial/wealth advisor or planner to look at my situation and help me figure out how I can leverage my finances. How do I choose? What questions do I ask? I live in Canada. Thanks
