Switching from SMS to Authenticator app for 2FA

I currently use SMS for 2FA but this is problematic when I am overseas on a different phone number. I want to switch to an authenticator app so I can use it wherever I am. 

I found the Reset my 2FA link in my account, but when I clicked it, I was shown only my email and password fields, with no option to reset my 2FA. Can anyone help me please?
