Did you check the fluid level? If it is low it will do the same thing you posted..

Does the fluid smell burnt? Do you see any particles in the fluid? When was the last time you changed the fluid and filter?

Check the fluid level first, then go from there.

If that checks out, then look at the filter next.

If those are okay, it sounds like the torque convertor's gone.
