My coreopsis 'Center Stage' is loaded with buds but is getting leggy. Is there anything I can do to promote shorter and wider growth?

Growing coreopsis for the first time this year but I'd imagine its like a lot of others - pinch them back before they even come close to setting buds. My heliopsis got kind of leggy and started spreading out in the center last year so I pinched them back by about an inch or two when they were a little over 6" tall and they're nice and compact right now
