No, not a financial advisor, you want a tax professional. One of my clients for years was a financial advisor AND a CPA to boot, and he knew better than to even try doing his own taxes.
You want to talk to/with someone that has been doing taxes for a while, and not just someone that has a title or degree that sounds like they might know what they are doing. And I don't heartily recommend the walk-in places that are always advertising on radio and TV, and have offices everywhere. There's a reason those people work there and not in a regular tax/accounting/CPA office. They're not all bad, but you never know who you'll get when you just walk in there, and they aren't all that cheap either. They usually charge you on what I call an ala carte basis. They basically charge you for every separate form they fill out, and every piece of paper and tax document they touch.
If you're looking around and start talking to somebody, and they sound a lot like me, you're probably headed in the right direction. LOL
