It's not really possible to give you an accurate answer based on your photo, but I'm sure a local gardening center can help you with identifying this tree. A rule of thumb about pruning trees is to only cut back to one-third the size of the tree. Any more at one time could kill or debilitate the tree. Here's an article that will may help:
