I feel like i am going for an overkill.
I am debating if I should ask a letter from my English professor. I already got 6 letters

2 science (2 Bio)
1 dentist
1 research
1 job
1 Psych

I got Psych as my NON-SCIENCE humanities letter, but I am not so sure if PSYCH is really Humanities. I mean at least asking for another letter for safety is better than regretting later, but it is so much hassle for me and the letter writer.

And do schools accept more than 3 letters? If possible, I want to send all the every school. More the better eh?

How many LORs do schools accept?

I would do 4 letters max, unless a school has a specific requirement. I would do the 1 dentist, 2 science (maybe your research could count here too) and one of your choosing. 6 is overkill in my opinion.

Also, unless you use a different service to handle those letters, AADSAS caps it at 4 max.

I am using my college's letter service to keep other letters.

I plan to put 2 sciences, 1 dentist, 1 job (dental research) as my 4 letters to AADSAS, and the rest to my college letter service.

Do you know any schools that accept more than 3 letters? and Is Psych OK for humanities?

Many schools will accept more than 3, and some do require more. However I think 4+ is excessive (and have been told this by an admissions director). Check the websites of the schools that you will be applying to in order to find out their requirements. They will generally spell everything out for you.

In my opinion psych would count for humanities. But once again, contact that school that requires a humanities letter to find out for sure.
