Banyan Tree Freezing

I have a summer home in Port Aransas and we recently had a significant hard freeze for three nights. When we arrived to check on the property and plants, the banyan tree was the worst of all the plants. The tree is about 20 feet tall and the trunk is about 12 inches in diameter. It was very healthy before the freeze. Now all the leaves have frozen and are going to fall. Will this tree recover? What could I do to help it?
