Honestly, if someone has a problem dropping one singular GCD of damage spell casts to set up a shield, then maybe they don't actually want to play a healer?
Holy moly, just look at this very game to get an example of how to do it right:

Afflatus Solace/Rapture
Macrocosm
Pneuma

Just put these damage GCD heals on a cooldown and they become another tool for you to use much like an OGCD except they actually break the Broil spam monotony, which is the entire point.
