Healing is not a competition. It's about working as a team. If that means the SCH/WHM you are paired with has to spend a little less time in cleric stance then that is 100% fine. It's not like your heals as AST are taking away health from a player - your other healer will be fine.

A healers first priority is healing. DPS is an added benefit. If a WHM/SCH team have the ability to spend a little more time in cleric stance, that is also 100% fine but it doesn't really mean anything in the grand scheme of things - DPS still need to do DPS things, work hard, and meet DPS checks.
