Terrain SLT 4 cyl

I was at a red light and when it turned green, pushed gas and realized I was moving slow (engine loud). I realized my car would not shift out of 1st gear. The rpm’s went all the way up to 6-7 and I had to let off the gas and it jerked down hard with shifting and finally it shifted out of 1st gear to 2nd gear. I have also noticed a very jerky shift in low gear. It almost feels like the transmission gears are sticking or something. Not sure how it works, but that’s def what it feels like.
