How to prune Cape Honesuckle

Tucson, AZ(Zone 9a)

I have a Cape Honeysuckle near my front door. It's full of buds, so I won't prune it yet. However, I need advice about how to prune when it's time. It's leggy. Likes to form 2 long woody stems while the main stem stays short and bushy. How should I prune to encourage it to be compact and upright?
