Quessing that it is 4 speed transmmission (PRND3L). What you are explaining is called the LIMP MODE. Remove 8 brong connector that is located next to the engine block (should be to left of trans oil cooler hoses from trans to radiator) this connector accumulates moisture in it, dry out and apply electrical grease. Is fluid level where it should be? Change trans filter and fluid (Use ATF + 3 or 4----Not Dextron)
Have you checked for codes (quickly turn ignition switch off/on 3 times and check engine light will flash--example 1 flash, pause 2 flashes = code 12.

Hope this helps to start with.
