sure looks like one that has been left in the pot too long. THis is a good palm to save as it is unhappy but has developed plenty of roots. Dry air roots are hard to keep happy. If you can cut the pot off without cutting too many roots, I'd get it int he ground and keep it moist. It does appear to be needing water pretty badly, the leaflets are closed up a bit. Get it in the ground and it will appreciate the luxury of wet soil.
