There is no "invisible hand" approach. The "invisible hand" is a description of what happens because of the laws of supply and demand. It's not something that economists take issue with. In fact, they all (100% of them) consider the "invisible hand" an accurate description, albeit an unnecessarily metaphorical one. The only people who take issue with the nomenclature are among those who are not economists, don't have the education, don't teach, don't research, etc.
An "invisible hand" approach in economics is like a "falling" approach (to gravity) in physics. They're both just simplistic descriptions of fundamental laws.
