That sure sounds like Torque Converter Lock Up in and out.
I have had GM Vehicles that you could feel when lock up occured and it felt like another gear shift.
Something to try, when it is working normally, tap the brake pedal but don't push hard enough to apply the brakes, just enough to turn on the brake lights. That will cancel lock up and when you let go of the brake you should feel lock up again.
Watch the tach to see if it is the same issue.
I too believe it could be either a defective or missadjusted brake light switch, unlocking and relocking the torque converter.
Would that also activate the brake lights? If so, either someone following you OR driving at night and seeing in the rear view camera if brake lights come on would be pretty easy diagnostics.
Yes it may activate the brake lights, UNLESS---it has a separate set of contacts for converter unlock.
