Restart your computer, download the base game through Steam and the pack you own there, open the EA App, click Sims 4 > Manage > Manage add-ons, and download your packs, but NOT a second copy of the base game. Everything should load as if you'd bought it from Steam.
Uninstalling the game shouldn't delete your saves or other user content. However, it's always a good idea to have a backup copy of anything you'd be upset to lose, and this is a good time. Your user data is all in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4, with saves in the saves folder, saved households and builds in Tray, screenshots in Screenshots, etc. You can back up this entire folder if you want.
