You could get the codes pulled to see if it is a solenoid. Any Auto Zone or Advance Auto will do this for free.
However it sounds like you have a clucth or torque converter clutch issue.
you are probably looking at a full rebuild. Make sure you take it to a transmission shop as oipposed to a regular mechanic. AAMCO is a little to high priced and you can use the search engine on this site to finsd a transmission shop near you.
