Kent, United Kingdom

My 8-foot cherry tree, having survived being transplanted about a month ago, has now had all the leaves on its top and higher branches destroyed by a storm that has wreaked havoc throughout our coastal neighbourhood. The 2 lower branches were sheltered and are OK. Should I cut it back to the level of the lower healthy branches?
