I have a 1988 Chevy Celebrity with a 2.8lL engine with 96,000 miles and an automatic trans with overdrive.

It up-shifts fine, but when slowing down it hits hard into first gear at around ten miles per hr.
And when I shift into reverse it also hits hard into reverse. What could be the cause?

The fluid level is correct but never has been changed.

I would start off with a transmission filter and fluid. IT should been done 3 times by now.
