Depends what you're looking to do, really. I'm assuming you're not talking about support Taric, but I don't know if you're looking more at improving the heal for Taric himself, or for his allies too.

If you want to make his heal better for him personally, just buy tanky stuff and a Spirit Visage. Sure, the heal won't visually be as much as if you'd bought AP, but the resists you'll get will mean that you take less damage so you don't need to heal as much. Gargoyle Stoneplate's active also counts for purposes of the heal's HP ratio, which allows for some pretty massive heals.

If you want to boost the heal for everyone, including allies, then just buy a Redemption or Ardent Censer instead. The 10% bonus heal/shield power might not do as much for your heal as buying a high-AP item would, but the effects are useful and it'll also boost your W power. Censer even has some AP on it anyway. Locket's also an option - won't boost your heal directly, but the active shield can block a load of damage on you and your allies so you need to heal them less.
