Editor support helps a lot with that. Personally, I consider it requisite
for effective editing of Lisp code (of any dialect).
I personally use emacs and paredit mode, but of course your preference may
be different. Whatever your favorite editor is, if it can be configured to
do automatic parenthesis matching, fixing alignment and the like, that will
go a long way towards mitigating the parenthesis burden.
