overwatered, dried out, but roots seem to be dead
Default overwatered, dried out, but roots seem to be dead

I have had my orchid 5 years. its always been healthy and beautiful flowers. i recently moved from CA to VA and brought it with me. I continued to water it as i usually did. however one day i noticed it was severely wet. apparently it stopped absorbing the water. i dried it out. not sure if i should cut the roots that appear to be dead or if i should leave it. when do i put it back in its tightly fitted pot and resume regular care? this plant is very special to me and i am trying to desperately save it.

Help!!! Here are some photos of my orchid.
