6 - Q : Can I prune the healthy branches to give it a better shape when I prune the broken branches?

It would be better not to inflict more injuries on your tree by pruning healthy branches. Your tree has already suffered a lot of damage from the freezing rain. Prune the broken branches, but wait until next year to reshape your tree.
