Governor may be stuck. a solenoid may be stuck open, or stuck closed, or the transmission throttle cable has come undone at one end or the other or has come loose at the ajustment point.

Will it shift if you let up on the accelerator for an instant and then step on it again? If it will shift while doing that, add some seal conditioner as you have a leaking servo seal or clutch apply seal. If that does not correct it after a period of time, the only real fix will be to pull the transmission and do a rebuild.
