As others have said, you can do both. This isn't a situation where you're either wearing Str accessories or your healer is able to DPS. If it was, you'd be correct. It's just not though. A tank (especially a Warrior, which is what most of the tanks using DPS accessories are) doing as much DPS as possible generally *doesn't* force their healer to heal more.
